</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; the situation:

<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; login as user:
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; -nothing works

<EM>&gt; loging as root:

<EM>&gt; -terminal-&gt; 'xscanimage' doesn't work
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; -desktop applauncher-&gt;xscanimage *does* work
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; That doesn't seem right. Is it?

<P>Mark,
<BR>
<P>You have stated it succinctly: That doesn't seem right. But, it is! I
<BR>
have _no_ explanation nor theory, except that obviously permissions
<BR>
somewhere need to be reset.

<P><EM>&gt;file permissions: My first guess is that /dev/scanner (or whatever your
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;device file is called) should have rw permissions for you.
</EM><BR>
<P>I wish I had /dev/scanner. That would have made things easier. I
<BR>
shotgunned the /dev/sd* with chmod 666. Maybe that would work. Just
<BR>
checked. How 'bout that! It did! Wow!
<BR>
<P>Muchas gracias! Vielen Dank! Many thanks!
