<p>
If you changed nothing in the config files, all backends are activated.<br>
If you start xscanimage or scanimage, all backends are queried if there<br>
are any connected scanners that are supported.<br>
<p>
If no scanners are selectable, you may have not set the<br>
permissions propperly or you don`t have generic scsi support enabled.<br>
<p>
Do: cat /proc/scsi/scsi and look if your scanner is listed.<br>
start the tool (in sane source) find-scanner as root to find out<br>
on which device the scanner is found.<br>
You may start (x)scanimage as root too to see if your scanner is found now.<br>
<p>
If that works, change the permissions of the device (as root).<br>
<p>
chmod 666 /dev/sg?<br>
where you must inster the right number o letter printed by find-scanner!<br>
<p>
Bye<br>
