Public bug reported: Binary package hint: udev
https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+ticket/1059 As you can see, the permissions are all over the place that need to be set. Shouldnt udev allow people to use a scanner? I thought it was a sane problem, and probably is aswell. Solution to getting scanner working right was to set permissions in /dev/bus/usb/<ID>/<ID> which should be handled by udev (i presume) Printer is a EPSON Stylus PHOTO Rx530. Multi-function printer that works PERFECT with scanning and printing. ** Affects: udev (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- Scanner Permissions https://launchpad.net/bugs/50286 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
