Trying to get the above USB scanner to work. sane-find-scanner tells me:
found USB scanner (vendor=0x07b3, product=0x0413 [600dpi USB Scanner], chip=GT-6816) at libusb:002:002 scanimage -L tells me: device `gt68xx:libusb:002:002' is a Plustek OpticSlim 1200 flatbed scanner but when I try xsane I get: (xsane:12066): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "clearlooks", [gt68xx] sane_open: power control failure: check power plug! while an error window opens with: "Failure to open device... Error during device I/O" Yet the scanner is plugged in, the little green light is on, and the scanner used to work perfectly until I upgraded from Mandriva 2007.1 to 2008.1. Any idea where to dig ?
