Starting a scan, they all stop after transmitting a small amount of data and give an error message (I/O error). So only scans with a small resolution or of a very small area are possible. Downgrading from libusb-0_1-4-0.1.13-2.2.x86_64 to libusb-0_1-4-0.1.12-139.1.1.x86_64 or fromlibusb-0_1-4 0.1.13-2.2-i586 to libusb-0_1-4-0.1.12-139.1.1.i586 solves the problem completely BTW: To get the scanners to work at all, third party drivers from Brother have to be installed (in my case brscan-0.2.4-0.x86_64.rpm) first. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install brscan-0.2.4-0.x86_64 and a brother USB-scanner 2. Use xsane to make a scan with colour and a medium resolution. 3. The scanner stops after a few centimeters and xsane returns an I/O error Alternatively: Use "scanimage > /dev/null", leading to "scanimage: sane_read: Error during device I/O" But, I haven't been able to locate that version of libusb.

In short: Downgrade from the two current packages - libusb-1_0 (known as libusb1) plus - libusb-0_1-4-0.1.13 (known as libusb-compat) to the one traditional libusb package - libusb-0_1-4-0.1.12 (known as libusb0) which you can download from the "hardware:libusb0" repository at http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/hardware:/libusb0/

First, thanks for responding. When I try to install the i586 version, Yast gives a list of other packages that need to be upgraded, plus 719 more. I'm somewhat afraid to do that as I have broken my system countless times by installing large upgrades like that, especially with KDE and QT libs, where the whole desktop just goes away (yeah, I know this a different thing, but I've had lockups with other installs like this and I am pretty leery of getting a totally broken system ). Any more words of advice? Thanks, Jim -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

OK, I've followed that page again and nothing. I believe all the correct libs are loaded. I did get a bit confused about the 32 bit libs as several sites say that it's the 32 bit version that is needed. I've got about 20 tabs open in firefox about this problem.
