You removed the Fedora package. That also means that the files below /etc/sane.d/ are probably all gone as well as the udev .rules file that is responsible for setting up read/write access to the device for users other than "root". > I have installed the git version, I manually added the USB ids in > /etc/sane.d/genesys.conf (since they didn't appear there), but > scanimage -L doesn't see the scanner... If you ran configure without a --prefix option, everything got installed below /usr/local/, including the configuration files. That should not be a problem though (since you removed the Fedora package) and scanimage should find the genesys.conf file below /usr/local/. That file should have an entry for the LiDE 120. I think your problem stems from the fact that the udev .rules didn't get installed in a place where udev looks. If my thought is right you should be able to find the scanner with sudo scanimage -L and scan by prefixing your command with `sudo`. If that works, you can "fix" things with make -C tools udev/libsane.rules sudo cp tools/udev/libsane.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/ > I found this page: > http://sane.alioth.debian.org/lists/sane-mfgs-cvs.html#Z-CANON > on which I read the CanoScan LiDE120 0x04a9/0x190e is completrly > supported, but in this page > http://www.sane-project.org/man/sane-genesys.5.html it doesn't appear.
