<font face="Sylfaen">Hi!<br>
<br>
I have a Canon LIDE 210, which is well supported by SANE and the
genesys backend.<br>
<br>
So far, I have been using the scanner connected to my PC, which
did run openSuse 13.2 (And SANE 1.0.24 or .25)<br>
Now I upgraded to openSuse Leap 42.1 ("stable release"), and the
scanner does not work. (SANE 1.0.24 and .25)<br>
However, my laptop runs openSuse Tumbleweed ("bleeding edge
release"), and the scanner works fine. (SANE 1.0.25)<br>
<br>
In all cases, SANE was installed from the official openSuse
repositories.<br>
<br>
About the problems with openSuse Leap 42.1:<br>
With 1.0.24, the scanner hesitates about 10 seconds, and then
starts to stutter. The head moves just a centimeter or so, and
does not home. The picture consists of many vertical, noisy
stripes, so the computer seems to receive at least something
analog...<br>
With 1.0.25, the scanner behaves the same way, but the software
aborts with an I/O error.<br>
<br>
(Of course, I tried other USB ports, but the scanner was
definitely working at them before!)<br>
<br>
I'm a bit clueless. The scanner is in general supported by these
SANE versions, but does not work with my particular distribution.
However, SANE uses libusb, which means it talks more or less
directly to the scanner - this should work straight forward. So I
have no idea what the problem could be.<br>
<br>
Does anybody have an idea?<br>
<br>
<br>
---<br>
<br>
Another issue: I also tried to compile the latest stable version
of SANE from the official SANE websites. <br>
I have libusb 1.0.0 and 0.1.4 installed (plus development packages
for headers etc.).<br>
I configured the build with/without <tt>--enable-libusb_1_0</tt>.
In both cases, <tt>scanimage</tt> claims that it was built
without USB support, and does not find my scanner (<tt>sane-find-scanner</tt>
does). I saw this when I enabled debug outputs by setting <tt>SANE_DEBUG_...=255</tt>.
<br>
<br>
Any Idea what I've done wrong?<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
