Hi, I have an Epson Perfection 2450 Photo scanner. It's connected via firewire. It used to work fine with older Suses using xsane. Recently I installed OS 11.2 64bit. I had to install xsane 32 bit, because the "driver" is 32bit. When I setup the scanner via yast, all seems OK. But xsane can't detect the scanner. When I do scanimage from the command-line (probably with some parameters) I do get something on the screen (a huge number of garbage-charachters) and the scanner moves it's scanning head. What can I do to get xsane working ? Thanks for any pointers. I'll try other scanner-software though, but I'm used to xsane. I use an Epson scanner under a 64bit OpenSuSE install (11.0 in my case), but I use the Epson-provided iScan frontend for scanning, and it works fine (at least for what I do). You may wish to try that (and it is now
