Thanks for responding. Here is a log of scanimage run as root in Linux, without the -T: http://isis.poly.edu/~kurt/scanimage_debuglevel_21.txt sane-find-scanner consistently finds the scanner.
I am running it in native Linux and native FreeBSD (two separate boxes, both running sane-backends 1.0.21, no virtualization. I have not tried the scanner in Windows or Mac because I don't have any Windows or Mac boxes. I could bring it to my office to try it with Windows if that is called for. thanks, -kurt On Sat, May 15, 2010 at 07:53:23AM +0900, Gernot Hassenpflug wrote: > On Sat, May 15, 2010 at 2:22 AM, m. allan noah <kitno455 at gmail.com> wrote: > > Can we see a log of scanimage run as root, without the -T? > > > > also- are you running this thing under some kind of VM? > > > > allan > > I've never seen this kind of error on my 8800F under windows XP, > Vista, or linux.
