It would appear that xsane is trying to scan for a scanning device even after i specify one (xsane umax:/dev/usb/scanner0). I also tried to create a common ln -s /dev/usb/scanner0 /dev/usbscanner which apppears to help but xsane then complains:
gdb reports: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x407454c0 in sane_sm3600_init () from /usr/lib/sane/libsane-sm3600.so.1 sane has no problem finding the umax device connected via usb port and scannerdrake appears to find & configure it also. I can also use xscan to perform scans, but it's not as good as xsane. This has been a continous bug for the past ~6 mos or more. I'm now on gcc-31 Although I should probabely send this to the xsane mailling list, maybe the xsane packager is on this list. oh, btw, sane-1.0.8 is out! (yes, i packaged this as well last night, but my email was down.) -- Roger ----- Verify my pgp/gnupg signature on my HomePage: http://www.alltel.net/~rogerx/about/index.html
