  David,
  Thanks for the suggestion:-) I got it running after Henning's guidance on Dec 23. It was the line "/usr/local/lib in /etc/ld.so.conf" that was my problem.

  [snip]

  I had the same problem and this is how I got it to work for mw.

  I removed the sane-frontends-1.0.4 and sane-backends-1.0.4 using rm -rf
  /dir/file.
  I then unntarred the backend file changed directory to
  /sane-backends-1.0.4
  I did ./configure.
  Then make clean ( I can't get distclean to work I always get command not
  found when I try it.)
  then make, then make install

  I then untarred sane-frontends-1.0.4
  changed directory to /sane-frontends-1.0.4
  ./configure
  make clean
  make
  make install

  It worked!
  I am using Red Hat 6.2 on an P III system. I don't know if this will
  work on another Distribution or not. I did have to remove the sane-
  files before I reinstalled them It didn't work until I did.

  Hope it helps you.

  David McCormick
