Bob, check Vuescan from hamrick.com
(http://www.hamrick.com/vuescan/canon_n1240u.html). It's the only
proprietary software I use, but you don't have to pay in order to test
you device. At least you can see if the scanner is broken.

Proprietary is not a problem, I sometimes buy software I need.
Installed as you suggested, unfortunately Vuescan doesn't find the
scanner either. It looks like I'll have to try the old HP scanner which
always worked, it's just a little larger and does not run from the USB
power like this cannon.
Aha, I wentback and tried Vuescan as root and that works, xsane does
not! I think I prefer to stick with Xsane if I can so I will inquire on
the "Sane" mailing list next, I just resubscribed to it earlier this
morning. Knowing that my equipment is still working is a big help I
suspect a recent update has changed something that went unnoticed until
now. I probably haven't tried to scan anything in a week or more ...
As I said I have two updated F-23 computers and neither will scan.
Thank you for the help,
Bob
