Sorry, isn't that what I did?
No, I haven't seen your reply to him in this list.

Isn't that your scanner?
Yes. I have no problems whatsoever with SuSE recognizing and using the scanner, as long as the operations are performed as root. This isn't a hardware detection problem.
Then, why do you click "other"?
I assume you accepted yast proposal. :-?
I clicked 'Finish' if that's what you mean. Still doesn't allow ordinary users to use (or even detect) the scanner.
Ok.
Linux is a moving target, and things change, sometimes a lot. If that script does not exist, it means that things are done diferently, by SuSE, or nowdays.
I think I understand that. What I need is to find out what I need to do differently than what I have done, which is essentially:
1. Install SuSE 10.2 using the defaults for a workstation 2. Install the updates to packages modified since 10.2 was released 3. Run YaST to configure the scanner as described above
Well, that's the way we all do it, except that we don't log in as root, as Rajko mentioned. Try as user starting yast (it will request your root password), remove the current scanner from the list, exit, enter, try again. Cross you fingers, touch wood, etc. Er... you default security settings, are they set to "easy" or "secure"? - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
