Since 6.06, I'd had no success with USB, instead went the Firewire route. I ran 'sudo chmod a+rw /dev/sg3' for each session. I was delighted to find this workaround was no longer required when I installed 7.10 a few weeks ago (oh joy!). My motherboard died two weeks later and the only replacement I could find lacked Firewire (oh sorrow!). Back to USB, 'sane-find-scanner' and 'scanimage -L' report the presence of the scanner, but I always got the I/O error if I tried to scan. The post above regarding USB 1.1/2.0 got me thinking and I dug out an old OrangeLink Firewire/USB PCI card (I'm guessing that it's USB 1.1). Plugged in the USB and it works! Plugged in the Firewire, that works too! Thank you David.
