I am a lifelong artist with a BS Computer Science; this is my first post, so I want to say thanks for making Sane, which has been very useful to me. I tried posting this to the listserv but received an error message email that I will put at the bottom.
I am trying to use a SCSI-2 Umax PowerLook 2100XL (which I used before on Slackware) with Slackware 14's sane-1.0.22-x86_64-5, xsane-0.998-x86_64-2. I followed the scanner-howto's instruction, but get the error message below from the howto's command below. root at cosmos:~# scanimage -d umax:/dev/scanner --format pnm > outfile.pnm scanimage: sane_start: Out of memory scanimage: received signal 15 scanimage: trying to stop scanner I am certainly not out of memory: I was using 7/64 GB at the time. I tried sane-troubleshoot (though maybe older than Xsane), which says it is a problem that the sane library is in two places (also in the X directories). David http://www.cwu.edu/~melikd/ PS. Below is the error message email I received. --- MAILER-DAEMON at imta-38.everyone.net wrote: From: Mail Delivery Subsystem <mailer-dae...@imta-38.everyone.net> To: <dchmelik at hipplanet.com> Subject: Returned mail: see transcript for details Date: Wed, 28 Aug 2013 03:04:05 -0700 The original message was received at Wed, 28 Aug 2013 03:04:01 -0700 from m0004959.ppops.net [127.0.0.1] ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- <sane-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org> (reason: 550-Verification failed for <dchmelik at hipplanet.com>) ----- Transcript of session follows ----- ... while talking to lists.alioth.debian.org.: >>> RCPT To:<sane-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org> <<< 550-Verification failed for <dchmelik at hipplanet.com> <<< 550-Previous (cached) callout verification failure <<< 550 Sender callout failed: Sender adress can't be verified through SMTP check. 550 5.1.1 <sane-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org>...
