<P>Hi Nick. I only have one compatible scanner and after the amount of time and
<BR>
effort I've put in to try to fix whatever broke when I went to 2.4.1 kernel
<BR>
I'm not sure it's worth it. I certainly don't want to repeat this grief
<BR>
(three days and counting) just because I change scanners, or go to kernel
<BR>
2.4.2, or Sane-1.0.5 or some other very minor change.
<BR>
<P><EM>&gt; It's quite possible that this is a backend problem.
</EM><BR>
<P>Please explain. I would have thought that since scanimage produces a perfect
<BR>
color scan then that would indicate the problem is with the frontend,
<BR>
specifically xscanimage and xsane. Obviously (right?) there is something
<BR>
different in how they talk to the scanner which baffles me.
<BR>
<P><EM>&gt; &gt; I thought xscanimage was a frontend to scanimage. Is this not so?
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; No, scanimage and xscanimage are separate front ends, the only similarity
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; is the name and common contributors AFAIK.
</EM><BR>
<P>It does get confusing when scanimage is a frontend included with the backends
<BR>
and the actual frontends are seperate altogether. I think you're right.
<BR>
Scanimage is a command-line frontend scanning utility. Why it's part of the
<BR>
backends mystifies me but there it is.
<BR>
<P>Thanks for the input. I'll keep plugging away at this and see what happens.
<BR>
<P>All the best,
<BR>
Paul
