[system: Ubuntu and the Visioneer 7300 / gt68xx/<br> <br> So first, thanks to Henning for the fw file.<br> <br> Now I am having trouble with permissions, I think. I can execute "scanimage" as root, but not as a user; likewise "XSane Image scanning program" produces "no devices available". If I run "sane-troubleshoot" as root, the scanner works. But here is an excerpt from the log file from "sane-troubleshoot" executed as a user:<br> <br> ...<br> [gt68xx] sane_init: config file line 203: trying to attach `usb 0x04a7 0x0444'<br> [gt68xx] attach: start: devp != NULL, may_wait = 0<br> [gt68xx] attach: trying to open device `libusb:001:002'<br> [gt68xx] gt68xx_device_new: enter<br> [gt68xx] gt68xx_device_new:: leave: ok<br> [gt68xx] gt68xx_device_open: enter: dev=0x8148958<br> [gt68xx] gt68xx_device_open: sanei_usb_open failed: Access to resource has been<br> denied<br> [gt68xx] attach: couldn't open device `libusb:001:002': Access to resource has been denied<br>
...<br> <br> Other info:<br> <br> Synaptic put the following files in directories different from what the gt68xx.man says they should be (e.g. "/usr/share/" instead of "/usr/local/share/"); I don't know if that's a problem. <br> <br> 1) "cis3R5B1.fw" is located at "/usr/share/sane/gt68xx/".<br> Permissions are -r--r--r--.<br> <br> 2) "gt68xx.conf" is located at "/etc/sane.d/".<br> Permissions are -rw-r--r--.<br> And I added a "firmware" line like so:<br> ############################################################<br> # Autodetect Visioneer OneTouch 7300<br> usb 0x04a7 0x0444<br> firmware "/usr/share/sane/gt68xx/cis3R5B1.fw"<br> ############################################################<br> <br> 3) "libsane-gt68xx.a": There is no static library (".a"), but there is one named "libsane-gt68xx.la" located at "/usr/lib/sane/". Is ".la" a weird type of static library?<br> Permissions are -rw-r--r--.<br> <br> 4) "libsane-gt68xx.so.1" and "libsane-gt68xx.so.1.0.15" are both
located at "/usr/lib/sane/".<br> Permissions are -rw-r--r--.<br> <br>Also I've attached the log sane-troubleshoot log run as a user, not root.<br> Thanks for your help.<br> <br> -stephen franklin<br> <br><p>
