Kelson, try this fix that I found: Go to users & groups: System>Administration>Users and Groups Click the "Unlock" button and enter password. Select your default user Click properties On the "User Priviledges" tab check the groups you belong to. If anything is not checked (like scanner for example) check it. Log out of your session and log back in again Now try to see if your scanner is being detected. So by default the default user is not added to all groups like it should. The groups that the default user should be added to still are: Send and Recieve Faxes Use Scanners Use Tape Drives In my case that solved my problem. -- Unable to access the scanner without being root https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/211889 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
