I've already asked for help here, but got no answer. I had my SCSI scanner working under 6.0, 6.1, 6.3, but it does not work in 7. The stock SuSE 2.2.16 kernel does not recognize it as SG0. I have downloaded and compiled 2.2.17 with my traditional .config file. This is the output of cdrecord -scanbus: csibus0: 0,6,0 scanner csibus1: 1,0,0 Pioneer DVD-rom 1,1,0 Creatice CD-RW o far , so good. When I launch Xsane, it loads all right, but when I hit the scan or preview button, Xsane freezes., and about 60 seconds later I get the message: "failed to start scanner". I checked the permissions and group for /dev/sga /dev/sg0 and /dev/scanner, and they are as they should. fxf -- ______________________ Courtesy of SuSE Linux Kernel 2.2.16 (who cares?) -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/support/faq
