<p>
Did you check your configuration files /etc/sane.d/dll.conf and<br>
/etc/sane.d/mustek.conf ?<br>
Are the permissions of /dev/sg0 set correctly? In my case:<br>
<p>
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root            8 Apr 21  1999 /dev/scanner -&gt;<br>
/dev/sg4<br>
crw-rw----   1 root     scanner   21,   4 Apr  5  1999 /dev/sg4<br>
<p>
I don<6F>t scan as root so I<>m member of the group "scanner".<br>
<p>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; My questions now are:</i><br>
<i>&gt; Has the scanner to be terminated? It's the only device on the bus.</i><br>
You could buy a terminator but if the scanner is the only device on the<br>
bus it should work. You will definitely run into troubles if you have<br>
more than three devices on the bus. If everything fails you should buy<br>
one. A passive terminator is ok.<br>
<p>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; What does ANSI SCSI revision 01 CCS mean? Shouldn't it be 02?</i><br>
Most scanners only have an SCSI-1 interface (25 pin connector). CCS<br>
means "common command set".<br>
<p>
Sorry that I don<6F>t have the time to look more closer at this problem. I<br>
hope that somebody has more useful hints.<br>
