You have been subscribed to a public bug: When I try to use Xsane, scanner initializes fine, but when scanning should start it makes loud cracking noise like trying to move reading head to wrong direction. This same problem appeared in Dapper and Edgy with all updates.
I'm quite sure that this could lead to broking the scanner permanently. Then I downgraded the libsane package to 1.0.15-9 from Debian and scanner works fine. Used version: libsane 1.0.18-3ubuntu API library for scanners Known good: libsane 1.0.15-9 API library for scanners I think this bug is critical to Canon lide30 owners rendering libsane dangerous to hardware! ** Affects: sane-backends (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: hw-specifc regression-release -- Cracking noise on Canon lide30, possibility for hardware failure https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/83957 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
