Hi all, I have an epson perfection 1660 photo that worked beautiful under 6.0. I recently reinstalled a my laptop with 8.0: FreeBSD trooper.naughton.ca 8.1-STABLE FreeBSD 8.1-STABLE #0: Fri Oct 8 17:37:37 EDT 2010 root@trooper.naughton.ca:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 It seems that /dev/uscanner has been dropped with the support of libusb. Now if I run sane-find-scanner as root or as user I get: # sane-find-scanner -q found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8 [EPSON], product=0x011e [EPSON Scanner]) at libusb:/dev/usb:/dev/ugen3.2 Yet if I run # scanimage -L I get: No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different, check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages). Though even as scanimage -L fails to find the scanner I can run the command: # scanimage -d epson --format=tiff > foo.tiff and it works (the resolution is pretty crappy but it works). If I attempt to simply run: # scanimage --format=tiff >foo2.tiff scanimage: no SANE devices found xsane fails to find anything so it won't start. Any suggestions? I've been surfing the web but I haven't found anything as of yet. Jason Naughton, P.Eng, M.E.Sc, Professional Contractor, JMN Planning, Pickering, Ontario, Office: (416)-509-4886 Fax: (905)-831-3810
