Okay, it seems to function now. It's a bit difficult to explain exactly what happened, but here is what I did:
- Downgrade to jaunty's version of libsane - fix definitively permissions of device via udev (cf. infra) - Adjust path to firmware (strangely enough, it had changed) in /etc/sane.d/<my_scanner>.conf - Upgrade back to current (1.0.20-4ubuntu3) libsane version Now it's ok. Concerning the permissions, I created a rule in /lib/udev/rules.d/99-custom.rules: ATTR{idVendor}=="05d8", ATTR{idProduct}=="4009", MODE="0664", GROUP="saned" (of course, idVendor and idProduct are those given by the lsusb command and I'm member of the saned group). -- Epson ALCX11NF Scanner I/O error in xsane https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/465055 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
