[S.u.S.E. Linux] Microtek Scanmaker E-6 not recognized.
Using SuSE Linux 5.2, I went to YaST to configure my scanner, and on the scanner set-up page no input is accepted. Any ideas? Lawrence Sayre <lsayre@integrityonline13.com> -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

I had the same. It's a bug in yast shipped with 5.2. Get the updated yast at ftp.suse.com. That should fix your no input problem, it did mine. <A HREF="ftp://ftp.suse.com/suse_update/S.u.S.E.-5.2/a1/yast.rpm"><A HREF="ftp://ftp.suse.com/suse_update/S.u.S.E.-5.2/a1/yast.rpm</A">ftp://ftp.suse.com/suse_update/S.u.S.E.-5.2/a1/yast.rpm</A</A>> lsayre wrote:

Edward; I went and got the yast.rpm update file, but could use a few pointers on where and how to install it. I'm leary of hoseing my existing YaST. Thanks, Lawrence Sayre <lsayre@integrityonline13.com> Edward Smith wrote:

Hello: Well I'm new at this also ( 2 1/2 weeks with linux). So I will just tell you what I did. I started yast in single user mode just to be safe the command for this is " init s ". Then I started yast, selected Choose/Install packages. Then I selected Install Packages. And then a screen comes up with "Scource: (none)" highlighted. I pressed the down arrow key and a list comes up, which I selected " Directory" and went to where I had my yast.rpm stored and selected it for installation. Then I pressed F10 to install it. I hope this helps. I'm only soso at giving instructions. One thing of note I have the same scanner. If you are using the chessey scsi card that comes with the scanner a Adaptec-1502(E/AE) ISA card then you will need to set up the scsi module aha152x to reconize to scanner. lsayre wrote:

HiHO..

you have installed sane (scanner acess now easy), you must have enabled scsi- generic in your kernel and the scanner must be found by your scsi driver during bootup. then yast should give all found scsi devices as option... o far... -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
