<p>
It does. So your scanner is on /dev/sga. You could link<br>
this to /dev/scanner (( ln -s /dev/sga /dev/scanner ))<br>
<p>
Please make sure, that you have set permissions for /dev/sga.<br>

<p>
I don't know what's going on with kernel 2.3.5 but I would suggest:<br>
Don't use bleeding edge testing kernels for testing wether your<br>
scanner works. Use better 2.2.10.<br>
<p>
Make sure, that you have no other instance of sane installed.<br>
(This version might not be overwritten by the new version, that'<br>
especially dangerous with the SuSE distribution)<br>
Now comment out in /usr/local/etc/sane.d/dll.conf all scanners<br>
except artec.<br>
<p>
Use the little programm "find-scanner" that comes with sane.<br>
It should find your scanner.<br>
<p>
Then you might want to do another test:<br>
<p>
scanimage -h -d artec:/dev/sga<br>
<p>
it should report possible commands you can give to your<br>
scanner.<br>
If it works:<br>
Try xscanimage.<br>
<p>
If it works: OK - if not: Please report on what step it failed<br>
and what error-messages you got.<br>
<p>
Regards<br>
Wolfgang<br>
