This is my first post to your list. Has there been any problems reported with the back end for the scanmaker 3600 in Fedora 6?
The front end recognizes the scanner, and sends it a signal but the device doesn't actually do anything but make a clicking noise (it appears to be coming from the motor that drives the belt that moves the scanning mechanism). It is the same on two machines running FC6, and the scanner works under XP, BTW typing "scanimage -L" into a terminal returns the name of the scanner, and running the front end as root does not make a difference. I have also removed the SANE program and reinstalled it (from an RPM) with no effect on the response. Any help would really be appreciated as I have searched for troubleshooting tips with out success. rbwe...@gmail.com
