Hi Dieter,
Thank you for fixing the scsi permission here. I wonder if this won't be done
automatically in the future for such scsi scanners, which mostly has worked
automatically in previous SUSE versions after setup with YaST2>Scanner (?)
The regular (sales) names for these now old but still well quality working
"home office" scanners (scsi and usb1) are:
1) Epson Perfection 1640SU Scanner (Flatbed scanner)
2) Epson Perfection 1640SU OFFICE Scanner (w/Automatic Document Feeder - ADF)
3) Epson Perfection 1640SU PHOTO Scanner (w/Photo adapter option instead of
ADF)
http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/ProductQuickSpec.jsp?oid=32724&category=
Refere also to the linked scanner/Linux driver list from Avasys in #44 above.
In my case I have 2) and can easy replace the ADF with the Photo adapter
option.
Listing sg4 here on 12.1 M5 (and identical on 11.4 TW):
~> ls -la /dev/sg4
crw-rw-r--+ 1 root lp 21, 4 sep. 14 12:16 /dev/sg4
Regarding the xsane and iscan scanner applications, this wasn't quite
unexpected for me ;)
As xsane looks to work properly on 12,1 M5, I won't mess with a bug report for
this error message on 11.4 TW, and as iscan works properly on both platforms.
As a curiosity I can mentione that the propriarity iscan drivers (with the
front-end application that utilize all scanner features) are included on my old
openSUSE 10.2 DVD and on SUSE Linux 9.x Professional before that. One day I
might notice Avasys regarding the missing iscan program icon :)
