Hi All,
I just noticed that "simple-scan" no longer works, it cannot find my scanner. This used to work just fine. I'm running the latest (installed today) snapshot, but I don't know when this stopped working - I try not to do much scanning :-) The scanner is a Canon Pixma "Multi Function" device, connected via Ethernet. (I never ever got it to print.) Running simple-scan in debug mode doesn't show me much, I see: > simple-scan -d > [+0.00s] DEBUG: simple-scan.vala:2015: Starting simple-scan 44.0, PID=91216 > [+0.01s] DEBUG: unsetenv() is not thread-safe and should not be used after > threads are created > [+0.04s] DEBUG: _g_io_module_get_default: Found default implementation gvfs > (GDaemonVfs) for ‘gio-vfs’ > [+0.18s] DEBUG: Portal not found: > GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name > org.freedesktop.portal.Desktop was not provided by any .service files > [+0.18s] DEBUG: Portal not found: > GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name > org.freedesktop.portal.Desktop was not provided by any .service files > [+0.18s] DEBUG: Portal not found: > GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name > org.freedesktop.portal.Desktop was not provided by any .service files > [+0.18s] DEBUG: _g_io_module_get_default: Found default implementation dconf > (DConfSettingsBackend) for ‘gsettings-backend’ > [+0.18s] WARNING: Using GtkSettings:gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme > together with HdyStyleManager is unsupported.

I have the saned daemon running, it seems to run OK. No matter what I tried I have been unable to trick it into logging any debug output e.g. even with "-d 32" I just see this logged: > mjoelnir:log 4.12 17:10:14 # grep sane * > messages:Dec 4 10:02:07 mjoelnir pkg_add: Added > sane-backends-1.2.1p0->1.2.1p0 > messages:Dec 4 16:58:31 mjoelnir pkg_add: Added xsane-0.999p7 (The second message is me adding xsane, but it also fails to find the scanner.) The README "sane-backends" ends with this cryptic (to me) advice, but I don't know what a "scanner device node" is for a thing with an IP address: > ... > NETWORK > ======= > By default, the saned(8) daemon runs as _saned, so you need to allow the > _saned user access to the scanner device node. What am I missing? Any tips for me? (Oh, I also tried "pfctl -d" to disable the local firewall, didn't seem to make any difference.)
