I'm looking for help in opening access to a scanner on FreeBSD. My setup is:
OS: FreeBSD v6.2 SANE: current versions of frontend and backend from ports Scanner: Avision AV220C2 Situation is that everything works from root... scanadf scans a document just fine. Debug output as root is almost identical to what you see below, except that it finds one scanner and lists it properly. My problem is that I can't get the saned user to work. I've followed the steps at http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/scanners.html to no avail. I realize that it must be a permissions issue, but can't see the solution. I think the debug output shows that saned user can read the /usr/local/etc/sane.d files. And I think device permissions are set to allow saned access through the operator group. So I'm a little stumped and appreciative of any help. $ whoami saned $ sane-find-scanner -q found USB scanner (vendor=0x0638 [AVISION ], product=0x0a2a [AV220C2]) at libusb:/dev/usb2:/dev/ugen0 $ ll /dev | grep ugen0 crw-rw---- 1 root operator 0, 90 Jul 13 06:13 ugen0 crw-r--r-- 1 root operator 0, 96 Jul 13 06:13 ugen0.1 crw-r--r-- 1 root operator 0, 97 Jul 13 06:13 ugen0.2 crw-r--r-- 1 root operator 0, 98 Jul 13 06:13 ugen0.3 $ ll /dev | grep usb crw-rw---- 1 root operator 0, 32 Jul 13 06:13 usb crw-rw---- 1 root operator 0, 31 Jul 13 06:13 usb0 crw-rw---- 1 root operator 0, 33 Jul 13 06:13 usb1 crw-rw---- 1 root operator 0, 34 Jul 13 06:13 usb2 $ grep saned /etc/group operator:*:5:root,saned saned:*:117: $ scanadf -Lq [sanei_debug] Setting debug level of dll to 128.
