It should be as follows: KDE => kooka (kdegraphics3-scan RPM) Gnome => xsane (xsane RPM) Plain X => xscanimage (sane-frontends RPM) This worked for me in the past and also for openSUSE 11.0 (I selected KDE3 and got kdegraphics3-scan selected by default). Unfortunately the whole pattern stuff is a bit obscure so that I don't know why exactly it didn't work for you (/var/log/YaST2/y2logRPM might help). Therefore this part looks like a "patterns" bug and I cahnge the component accordingly. Regarding "Gimp has no scanner in the Acquire Menue." Only the xsane RPM and the sane-frontends RPM provide a plugin for scanner access directly in Gimp. Therefore when you have KDE as desktop, there is by default no Gimp scanner plugin installed which is bug #422558. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
