Installing parport scanner with ppscsi via Yast (Solved)

I have been going nuts trying to install my scanner. I didn't know that if you run Yast from a user's screen, even though it requires the root passowrd, it doesn't work correctly! I tried it logged in as root, and it worked no problemo! Boy, I feel dumb! Thanks to everyone for all the wonderful help I recieved. You guys (and gals) are the best! Harry G
