[sane-devel] What am I missing?

[Peter Kirchgessner]

Hi,

try to plug in the USB-cable of the scanner after your system is up. If 
you hear a short beep after a few seconds, the system should have 
recognized the scanner. If not, have a look at /var/log/messages for 
error messages.
Did you unplug the SCSI-connection of the scanner ? This might be 
necessary to get it running with USB.

Sincerely

Peter
