Is there a step by step instruction for setting up sane? This equipment did work some time ago when using FC4 Linux but has not worked with FC5.
sane-find-scanner shows: found USB scanner (vendor=0x03f0, product=0x0701) at libusb:001:002 and scanimage -L No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different, check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages). Yes, yes, and yes, and I have read a lot of material but nothing that makes clear what I need to do next. The scanner is an HP5370c Scanjet for which I gather that I need the avision.conf file but I'm not sure I have that in the right place or that it is commented correctly. /etc/sane.d/avision.conf # This are the possible options. Normally any scanner # should work just fine without them - and they are only # needed for test and debugging. So if you experience problems # and you solve them with enabling options here, please notify # the SANE/Avision maintainer: Rene Rebe <r...@exactcode.de> #option disable-gamma-table #option disable-calibration #option force-a4 #scsi AVISION #scsi FCPA #scsi MINOLTA #scsi MITSBISH MCA-S600C #scsi MITSBISH MCA-SS600 #scsi HP #scsi hp #scsi /dev/scanner #usb libusb:002:003 usb 0x03f0 0x0701 As I said this same set of equipment did work perhaps a year ago but I can't seem to get things right again with this up to date FC5 system as root. Any help will be much appreciated. Bob Goodwin
