lunedì, 02 luglio 2001 alle 16:51:29, Mine is /dev/sg0 and I try to change the permission to this file. I try to use the scanner as root ignoring the advice and all works fine. My user is in disk group (the group of /dev/sg0), and has the right permission to read from this device. Maybe it should also have write permissions?
Thank you Ambrosius, have a nice day Emillo
YES. if the user does not have write permissions they cannot send commands to the scanner. Personally I've got my scanner's device entry set to 666 I'd recomend: chmod 666 /dev/sg0 That should fix it for ya.
