The scanner works as root, but not as a regular user. So we need to adjust the permissions of the device. The mechanism to do this differs somewhat between linux distros. Generally, we will be editing udev (/etc/udev/rules.d) or hal (/usr/share/hal/fdi/) rules. Or, perhaps some other mechanism. :( allan On Tue, May 10, 2011 at 3:36 AM, Chris esky64 at tpg.com.au wrote: sudo scanimage -L device `canon:/dev/sg0' is a CANON IX-12015E ? ? ? ?flatbed scanner On 10/05/11 01:16, m. allan noah wrote: run the following, as root: scanimage -L if your scanner is not listed, run the following as root: SANE_DEBUG_CANON=255 scanimage -L 2canon.log This will produce a 'canon.log' file in the current directory.
