Chris,
I went to the dll.conf file as you requested and commented
out all but the scanner I was using (Umax). I then needed
to do a system reboot since for some reason the kernel couldn't
find the SCSI port where my scanner was.

Then I invoked xscanimage and lo and behold - IT WORKED
perfectly!!!!!

Thanks for your input. I know how difficult it is to document
everything, but perhaps this should be included in the README
files. As simple as this was to fix, I was down about 2 1/2
weeks.

Anyway, thanks again.

    Since your output mentions the hp backend also, can you try what I

    suggested to him about commenting out everything in your dll.conf file

    except for the backend you need?

        Chris,

            I went to the dll.conf file
    as you requested and commented

            out all but the scanner
    I was using (Umax).       I then needed

            to do a system reboot since
    for some reason the kernel couldn't

            find the SCSI port where
    my scanner was.
            Then I invoked xscanimage
    and lo and behold - IT WORKED

            perfectly!!!!!
            Thanks for your input.
    I know how difficult it is to document

            everything, but perhaps
    this should be included in the README

            files.
    As simple as this was to fix, I was down about 2 1/2

            weeks.
            Anyway, thanks again.
