That's not a problem. The backend will try to autodetect supported=20
devices, regardless of SCSI and USB.=20

What exactly is your problem? The log you sent looks fine, but it's=20
incomplete. Your scanner is detected correctly. BTW, what scanner=20
model are you using?

Check if you need to specify a firmware file for your scanner (see=20
http://snapscan.sourceforge.net ). If so, place the filename with=20
full path of the firmware file in snapscan.conf (after the keyword=20
firmware), e.g.

firmware /usr/local/sane/u34v110.bin

The firmware part of your snapscan.conf looks a bit messed up,=20
although all entries are commented out. You do not need to include a=20
reference to acerfirm or agfafirm.

Other sources of information is the output of "scanimage -L" and=20
"SANE_DEBUG_SNAPSCAN=3D255 xsane 2>debug.log" (which will create a file=20
"debug.log" with all the debugging information from the backend.
