Hi I am trying to install a scanner with YaST and keep getting the message: Error Failed to determine the active scanners. When the net metadriver is activated and something is wrong in the network, it can happen that there is no response from the 'Scanimage -L' command. For example when the communication with a server whcih should be used by the net metadriver gets distorted because a firewall drops some network traffic in this case it should help to disable the net metadriver as a work around until the issue in the network is fixed. I do not have any known networking problems at the moment. I am trying to install the scanner on the machine that the scanner is connected to. Does anyone understand this? This worked well in SUSE 10.2, why is this broken now?
