I guess something changed in the library with this particular model... Now have a new problem, can't access except as root, in any way can let a normal user to access the device, tried udev rules, to setuid the programs, cry and pray, but nothing works :S Thanks for your comments Sounds identical to a problem I had. I don't really understand it, but you can find more about it here: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=225599 Have you tried disabling the epson2 backend? Towards the end of the bug report there is mention that the epson and epson2 backends might be getting into one another's way. You can disable backends in the /etc/sane.d/dll.conf file (or, IIRC, on your system /usr/local/etc/sane.d/dll.conf). You could also try with the epson backend disabled.

Please do both of us a favour and make sure the device is connected, powered on and has finished warming up. Next, log in as a normal user, open a terminal window and _cut_and_paste_ the following shell commands into that terminal window: script cx3900-debug.log groups /sbin/lsusb ls -lR /dev/usb SANE_DEBUG_DLL=127 SANE_DEBUG_EPSON=127 scanimage -L exit gzip cx3900-debug.log Hi Here is the log, scanner is powered an connected and scanimage shows it only as root I had a look at the log but didn't find any clues. If disabling one of the epson and epson2 backends, see other post, doesn't fix your problem, try the above again but then also specify SANE_DEBUG_SANEI_USB=127 before the scanimage command.

[sane-devel] Epson 4990 / v700 Lamp Shut-off
Hello everyone! I have been working with the epson2 backend for some time now, as I use both the 4990 and v700 as part of my work. The items I scan are heat-sensitive, which is problematic given that lamps of both the scanner and its transparency unit generate quite a lot of heat. After each scan the lamps remain powered for fifteen minutes before automatically turning off. Does anybody know of any command(s) that will allow me to turn off the scanner's lamps earlier than this? There isn't anything in the 4990 documentation to suggest it is possible, but perhaps someone here has stumbled upon a something. Thanks, Nick -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

best bet might be to look around the windows gui and/or manual and see if it can do it. if so, get a trace of it in action... allan 2008/8/25 myopicwatchmaker myopicwatchmaker at gmail.com: Hello everyone!
