Parallel scanner only works as root
Hi, I'm trying to get my scanner (Canon FB620P) works as a normal user. The SDB is ver usb-centric and I think that the parallel port is quite different from usb. Which rule do I need to add so normal users can use the scanner? PD: I'm using suse10.1 Thanks, -- Flextron - Linux user: 306877 -- GPG keyID: 0xE0EA0B24 --

See http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Configuring_Scanners_from_SUSE_LINUX_9.2 at the end of the " libusb + resmgr + PAM" section: "Alternatively you can use 'saned'..."
I'm using suse10.1
Use YaST. Go to [Other] -> "Scanning via Network": Read the help text. Select [Local Host Configuration]. Click [Next] and [Finish]. Kind Regards Johannes Meixner -- SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5 Mail: jsmeix@suse.de 90409 Nuernberg, Germany WWW: http://www.suse.de/
