  I just downloaded sane 1.0.3 and I'm trying to get it to run on
  a Solaris 8 SPARC system running with the 32 bit kernel. The scanner
  used is an HP ScanJet 5P attached over SCSI on SCSI id 2 on the secondary
  SCSI bus.

  I also have the commercial SG generic SCSI drivers installed. They only
  work with the 32 bit kernel. Those came as part of the XVSCAN program
  which I've been using quite successfully for a couple years now. The
  SG package creates device links in /dev/sg and the one for the scanner
  happens to be /dev/sg/10. I also have a symlink /dev/scanjet that points
  to that for easier reference.

  When I try to run scanimage it says "scanimage: no SANE devices found"
  I configured my sane.d/hp.conf file to read:
  scsi HP
  /dev/scanjet

  I also tried the /dev/sg/10 instead of /dev/scanjet with no change.

  I've read all the docs I could find and I can't figure out what I'm
  missing. Please help!
