I've been banging my head against this for a while with nothing to show<br>
for it.<br>
<br>
I have an Epson Perfection 610 flatbed scanner, which hasn't seen any use<br>
for two or three years, but which I appear to need to have up and running<br>
in the near future against my desktop machine. A little late, but I also<br>
brought the software up to date by installing Fedora 16 over the old<br>
install (F-14, I know the job should have been done some months ago 8-()<br>
The system software has installed fine (with one glitch only, another post<br>
sorry). Now for the scanner...<br>
<br>
Things are nice and plugged up. (Power, usb, etc). I can use lsusb to<br>
locate the scanner and the manufacturer and device id (0x04b8:0x0103 if I<br>
copied correctly). Running sane-find-scanner both as myself regular user<br>
and root appears to find the scanner, but scanimage -L does not find the<br>
scanner.<br>
<br>
I've tried some edits and poking around in /etc/sane.d, mostly to try<br>
adding a "usb 0x04b8 0x0103" line to the epson2.conf file, but also to try<br>
using the epson.conf backend (which is depreciated). SeLinux both on and<br>
off, still no joy. Probably my description to google lacks something, but<br>
I haven't found any leads there either.<br>
<br>
I know the scanner works, as I plugged up with a friend's laptop under<br>
Ubuntu 10.10, and it just works under Ubuntu.<br>
<br>
I am sorely puzzled by this, and apparently need to report to the public<br>
square for a beating with a large clue stick.<br>
<br>
Again, thanks for the use of your bandwidth and time<br>
