HP 6110 on 64bit
by Colin Carter 01 Apr '05

01 Apr '05

Hi, I cannot use the scanner on my hp 6110 combination FACS, printer, scanner, copier. (The printer is fine, the copier is stand alone, and I don't use the FACS.) SANE produces the message "no device available". The help and documentation implies that the "backend" may not be installed. I cannot find the mentioned module sane-dll. I understand the idea that a "backend" is required, but I have no idea how to test/provide for same. I checked the hpoj web site but cannot determine which driver I ought to use, and there appears to be no mention of a 64 bit version. I am running SuSE 9.1 on AMD64. Thanks for any ideas. Regards, Colin

I had similar problems until I realised that there was another firefox window running on another workspace throughout the update. It seems that the update replaces in-use files and the running version doesn't spot that they've changed. The solution (for me at least) was to exit ALL firefox sessions (check using ps) then restart.

Again me and powernowd
by zio budda 01 Apr '05

Hi, I'm here again. Yesterday I have read and read and I have found that if I stop powernowd deamon and #echo 800000 >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_setspeed My CPU go to 800Mhz and stopped it to 800Mhz. If i start powernowd deamon the cpu go immediately to 2000Mhz and never under this value. I think that is a problem with configuration of powernowd deamon. Any help ? Any more info to give to you ? tnx tnx

It's pushing it. I've seen my AMD64 notebook hug that temperature a few times, but that is only when I have it runnung high intense apps with it unplugged or in charging state due to battery heat; running at 100% capacity at all times. You may want to have the cooling system and fan checked out. JD
