<P>
I decided to tackle scanning this weekend. It is now almost monday and
<BR>
I haven't quite gotten it all the way implemented.
<BR>
<P>The last hurdle lies with this problem that a lot of people seem to
<BR>
have. I just haven't found an answer.
<BR>
<P>After installing the backend, frontend and xsane, then configuring
<BR>
snapscan.conf and dll.conf to utilize my scanner, I am unable to run
<BR>
xscanimage or xsane from anything but /usr/local/etc/sane.d. Usually I
<BR>
get a &quot;No Devices Available&quot; error from everywhere but that directory.
<BR>
<P>However, I can dump the executables in /sane.d and symlink them to
<BR>
/usr/local/bin and it runs just fine anywhere from the command line.
<BR>
This is simply a work-around and doesn't help with trying to get them to
<BR>
run as plug-ins in GIMP 1.2. There seems to be nothing I can do to get
<BR>
that part working.
<BR>
<P>My permissions are set correctly, I have been able to scan and save
<BR>
images both as root and as a regular user but like I mentioned, only in
<BR>
/usr/local/etc/sane.d. I really want to be able to use &quot;xsane&quot; and/or
<BR>
&quot;xscanimage&quot; from GIMP, moreover, just being able to run them from the
<BR>
command line without having to do this symlink shuffle would be nice as
<BR>
well. A friend mentioned I would have to make sure sane.d was in my
<BR>
path. As a intermediate newbie I can say I know what he is talking
<BR>
about but not how to do that.
<BR>
<P>Here is my setup:
<BR>
<P>I am using an Acerscan 620ST Prisa on an Adaptec 2940UW
<BR>
<P>in sane.d I have my snapscan.conf setup like this:
<BR>
<P>/dev/sg1
<BR>
<P>and in dll.conf
<BR>
<P>snapscan
<BR>
<P>my system is Debian 2.2 Potato running Kernel 2.4.4 with both the
<BR>
generic and AIC 7xxx driver compiled in.
<BR>
<P>Oh and this Sane 1.0.4 and xsane 0.76
<BR>
<P>Like I said, I can scan but only under the mentioned conditions. I am
<BR>
happy to have gotten this far and would appreciate any suggestions any
<BR>
of you may have.
<BR>
<P>Thank you,
<BR>
<P>matt.
