Tried this again tonight, did get something different. Kooka found
scanner, but prescan did not work. Xsane comes up with an error that
HewlettPackard:Scanjet5300.drc is not a device-rc-file!!!
Couuld not find any info on this file. Is this the problem? If so, where
does it come from? File is there in proper path, but it is 0 bytes long.
