[sane-devel] Re: scanner not recognised part IIHello again,

[Karl Heinz Kremer]

I'm really out of ideas ... Even though the device is recognized at=20
boot time,
it's not available when you try to scan.

You can rescan your SCSI bus to detect new (or in this case old)=20
devices with
the script at http://www.garloff.de/kurt/linux/rescan-scsi-bus.sh
Save this script to your disk, make it executable (chmod 755=20
rescan-scsi-bus.sh)
and run it as root user. Does this report your scanner?

Did you power down the scanner while Linux was running?
