has anyone made this scanner work with linux 9.1? It seems to install and run, but scan quality looks like 10dpi at 75 AND at 600 dpi. so far i have used xsane and Kooka, the results are about equal. thanks, d.
Hi there,
nope, I don't use that scanner you mention but I found out that VUEScan (http://www.hamrick.com/vsm.html) gives better quality and has more options than Kooka, for example... just give it a try.
HTH, Martin
With USB scanner support taken out of the 2.6.x kernels, libusb and xsane/sane can't see my scanner, so many months ago I downloaded vuescan and that has been fine. The only problem noticed is with gimp which is tied to xscanimage, I messed with the config files to get gimp-2.0.x to use vuescan, it started vuescan but couldn't grab the image. I'll float this to the gimp mailing list and see what comes back. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce .... Hamradio G3VBV and keen Flyer =====LINUX ONLY USED HERE=====
