Hi, Yes the scanning with the CVS version doesn't make the scanner create those dreadful sounds, and it consistently works!! Thanks! However, something strange that was happening initially though was that scans were working fine, but right at the end of the scan when the scan was successful,

[sane-devel] xsane: page counts and ADF

2007-08-09 Thread David Campbell
