Dear Folks, I am having problems setting up saned on Fedora 8: $ grep sane /var/log/rpmpkgs libsane-hpaio-2.7.7-6.fc8.i386.rpm sane-backends-1.0.18-17.fc8.i386.rpm sane-backends-devel-1.0.18-17.fc8.i386.rpm sane-backends-libs-1.0.18-17.fc8.i386.rpm sane-frontends-1.0.14-3.fc7.i386.rpm xsane-0.994-4.fc8.i386.rpm xsane-gimp-0.994-4.fc8.i386.rpm
I've created user and group saned. $ grep saned /etc/passwd saned:x:1020:1021:User to run saned scanner daemon only:/:/sbin/nologin When I do: $ sudo -u saned sane-find-scanner |grep ^found found USB scanner (vendor=0x03f0, product=0x5511) at libusb:003:004 However, as myself, we also get the model information: $ sane-find-scanner |grep ^found found USB scanner (vendor=0x03f0 [HP], product=0x5511 [Deskjet F300 series]) at +libusb:003:004 $ scanimage -L device `hpaio:/usb/Deskjet_F300_series?serial=CN72FGM1CB04KH' is a Hewlett-Packard Deskjet_F300_series all-in-one And as the saned user, we get no biscuit: $ sudo -u saned scanimage -L No scanners were identified. Here are the permissions: $ ls -l /proc/bus/usb/003/004 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 147 2008-01-03 06:21 /proc/bus/usb/003/004 $ cat /selinux/enforce 0 local scanning works fine for me. All updates applied. I'd be grateful for any suggestions. -- Nick Urbanik http://nicku.org nicku at nicku.org GPG: 7FFA CDC7 5A77 0558 DC7A 790A 16DF EC5B BB9D 2C24 ID: BB9D2C24 -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
