Apologies if this is the wrong place to post this. I gave been trying to get my old HP ScanJet 3300C to work all afternoon. Have searched here and there (including Ubuntu Forums) and tried several possible fixes but nothing has worked.
xsane used to be able to run this scanner perfectly but I haven't had to use it in a while. Since the last time I fired it up, I moved to a new computer (but used the old hard drive with Gutsy on it). In order to fix hibernation issues on the new hardware, I am running the Hardy 2.6.24-16-generic kernel on Gutsy (don't want to upgrade to Gutsy quite yet). I can still run xsane on Gutsy in Virtual Box (with the Gutsy kernel) but I can't run xsane on Hardy in Virtual Box. So it looks like the problem is Hardy. I added users to the scanners group as suggested in several places but it's still a no go. Is there anyway to get this working? Thanks for your patience.
