| Summary | scanning (at least via skanlite) no longer works | USB scanner CanoScan LiDE 110 (genesys backend) makes bad-sounding noise with sane-backends-1.0.24 (worked with sane-backends-1.0.23 ) |

According to comment#1 "idVendor=04a9, idProduct=1909" and http://www.sane-project.org/cgi-bin/driver.pl?manu=&model=&bus=any&v=04a9&p=1909 you have a USB scanner CanoScan LiDE 110 and you use the genesys driver from the sane-backends RPM. Caution: When a scanner makes bad-sounding noises the usual reason is that the scanner's internal moving parts "do bad things" which means the scanner hardware could get damaged. It seems this is the same issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sane-backends/+bug/1184699 Regarding the genesys driver we also have bug#905034 (different symptoms) but there it also had worked on a 13.1 system. I do not have a scanner that uses the genesys driver so that I cannot reproduce anything here. My scanner usees the plustek driver that works for me. We (i.e. openSUSE) distribute sane-backends from the SANE project but we do not develop scanner drivers. In case of issues with scanner drivers from sane-backends, you should report them directly to the driver authors at the SANE project via http://www.sane-project.org/bugs.html so that there is a direct communication between you and the upstream authors.
