Dear all, I downloaded a cvs copy of both backend and frontend, compiled it from scratch and install everything. It took me a while but I was able to get everything running.
Now, my problem is that xsane does not automatically detect my scanner, and I'm forced to provide the device parameter all the time. I would like to fix this so it automatically detects the scanner. How can I go about doing this? I search all over (ubuntuforums, google, sane list, etc) and I cannot find a good reference that will get this solved. sane-find-scanner outputs the following line: found USB scanner (vendor=0x04c5, product=0x1096) at libusb:001:006 which I use to get xsane started with xsane fujitsu:libusb:001:006 My lsusb shows: Bus 001 Device 004: ID 046d:c50a Logitech, Inc. For the fujitsu.conf I have the line containing the usblib thing: usb 0x04c5 0x1096 And as for the dll.conf I only have fujitsu and net (everything else is commented out). I also added the following new line to /etc/udev/rules.d/45-libsane.rules SYSFS{idVendor}=="04c5", SYSFS{idProduct}=="1096", SYMLINK="scanner", MODE="664", GROUP="scanner" My user is a member of the scanner group, and even if I tried as root, unless I provide the driver I always get the message of device not found. My suspicion is that the front end does not know that it is suppose to use the fujitsu backend, but beyond what I have done I don't know what else to do. That is why I'm turning to you to see if I can get some further instructions. Thank you very much! Roberto "ohrock" Serrano
