I am glad to hear that.
I know that this isn't the forum to do so, but could you please tell me a way to
solve this problem (or send a link containing the solution)?
Many thanks

You can probably start with http://www.freecolormanagement.com/sane/libusb.html And it is now time to close this bug I guess. Thanks |
Most recent kernel where this bug did *NOT* occur: 2.4.31 Distribution: Debian 4.0 "Etch" Hardware Environment: First: AMD XP 2400+ CPU VIA KT600 chipset Epson Perfection 1260 scanner Second: Intel pentium M CPU Intel 82801 chipset Epson Perfection 1260 scanner Software Environment: udev 0.105-4 xsane 0.99+0.991-2 libsane 1.0.18-5 Problem Description: xsane does not recognise scanner It seems as if no class drivers would claim the scanner. The documentation hinted that the "usbhid" module should handle scanners, but apparently, it does not handle this one (I tried to load it by hand). The "scanner" module in 2.4.31 does claim this device, and scanning works fine with xsane. The bug was reproduced using on two different computers (but the same scanner), and both on 2.6.18 and 1.6.17 kernels. Steps to reproduce: - Plug in epson perfection 1260 scanner - run xsane
