scanimage --list-devices returns the error that no scanners were identified. xscanimage just hangs there for a while (~2 minutes) and exits with a message that no scanners were identified. Kooka takes about 2 minutes to start up, and cannot find any scanners. xsane is the same... hangs for a while, and then reports back that there are no scanner devices.
So, anyone see what I have missed here? Why is this scanner just sitting there so smugly, refusing to startup?

Hello Clalyton I am using SuSE 7.3 I have an epson 1650 scanner and had the same problem at the beginning. Type lsmod to see if your scanner module is listed there. if not The solution for me was to write /sbin/modprobe scanner in /etc/init.d.boot.local So that the usb module for the scanner should be loaded at every boot. Maybe it is the same for you. Good luck.
