Hi
I have a 7.3 system with an Epson Perfection 1650 scanner and an Epson Stylus Photo 895 printer connected on the USB.
Even though I have set up the scanner under YAST2, when the system is closed down and rebooted xsane is unable to see the scanner unless I execute:
modprobe scanner
as root.
When I edit the rc-config file INITRD_MODULES entry to include the usbcore, uhci and scanner modules, the printer will not work!
INITRD_MODULES="reiserfs" Printer but no scanner until I modprobe scanner.
INITRD_MODULES="reiserfs usbcore uhci scanner" Scanner but no printer and no way of starting the printer.
Can anyone help with this?
Peter.
Hi Peter,
Did you try to also include 'printer' in initrd_modules already?
