change the configuration of your system? Recompiling the kernel=20
certainly qualifies for this.

What is /dev/scanner linked to? (Does not really play a role if you get=20=

the same behavor with "scsi EPSON", but if you have not tried to run as=20=

root when you are using "scsi EPSON" in the config file, it could be=20
important).
