Hi, the installation of the SAMsung printer software for the printer ml-2250 (FILE: 20060711101742437_UnifiedLinuxDriver.tar.gz from the SAMSUNG website) disables the usage of the USB scanner CANON LIDE 30 by non root users
I'am running fc5, and before installing this SAMSUNG printer driver I could scan as normal user without problem. But after installing 0060711101742437_UnifiedLinuxDriver.tar.gz, scanning was no more possible: xsane insmod: can't read '/lib/modules/2.6.18/kernel/drivers/mfpportctrl/mfpport.ko': No such file or directory Starting xsane/scanimage as root was possible on the other hand. After uninstalling the driver, I could again start xsane without problems as normal user. The problem is Kernel independent: running the Vanilla kernel 2.6.18 and FC5 kernel both produce the same error results. -- Joachim Backes <[email protected]> University of Kaiserslautern,Computer Center [RHRK], Systems and Operations, High Performance Computing, D-67653 Kaiserslautern, PO Box 3049, Germany -------------------------------------------------- Phone: +49-631-205-2438, FAX: +49-631-205-3056 http://hlrwm.rhrk.uni-kl.de/home/staff/backes.html -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
