Today Antoine Jacoutot had this to say:

Selon Denny White <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
team. :-) I know the obsd os supports scanners, but I can't
seem to find a good recommendation. I also don't understand

OpenBSD should support pretty much any scanner that SANE supports.

& backends, but it's not in my /usr/ports/graphics. Is this
because I'm running _3_8 & not current, or could I be doing

Yes, sane-{backends,frontends} was imported after 3.8 was released.

GENERIC kernel with very little change. I think the only change
I did to it was to enable DUMMY_NOPS which it comments as

You're running an unsupported kernel.

So, just need some input on any luck anyone has had with usb scanners.

I, for one, am very happy with my Epson USB scanner. I can scan via USB
and via the LAN too.

Any input greatly appreciated.

If you want to install SANE on OpenBSD, you can either :
- grab the -current port and try to complile it under 3.8 (unsupported,
don't ask questions if you have problems)
- wait for 3.9 to be released
- upgrade to -current

Hope that helps....

Yep, helps a lot. I kind of figured I'd need to either run
current or else wait for 3.9 which, the latter, is what
I'm going to do. Time to preorder. :-) Thanks, Antoine.
That cleared things up.
