At this point if the correct scanner is selected (I don't recall you mentioning the brand/model)
It's a Canon CanoScan LiDE30
just click on finish.
Actually, the instructions on the left say "To set up a new scanner, choose the scanner from the list of detected scanners and press *Edit*" which is why I did just that.
And as it has been suggested by someone else check that you don't have the permissions set to strict in /etc/sysconfig/security.
I don't.
Also check /etc/sane.d/dll.conf and make sure you model is uncommented (remove the # character from the start of the line).
Yes, checked that, too.
An off the wall IDEa ........... Did the scanner manufacturer issue any firmware updates, and did you get them ??? Iff the driver, etc. software assumes you have the by now old firmware update......... ;-) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
