Trying again. HELP anyone..

 HP Scanner 3570c. Harddrake found it on system install cause it is in 
    

dev/usb/scanner0 but nothing want to see it. Kooda even put an icon on my 
desktop during install but it does nothing. I also just tried VUESCAN and 
that doesn't see it either.

Do you have the module 'scanner' in your /etc/modules file?  For reasons 
beyond me Mandrake recognizes the that it is a scanner, but insists that it 
can not be configured through the scanner device tool.  I guess only the 
scanner device tool adds the 'scanner' entry.

Xsane found the printer/scanner just fine after I added it.  You'll either 
need to reboot, or 'modprobe scanner'.

You'll find a little more information on the TWiki.  Anne can point you to 
the correct link if you can't find it ;)

in harddrake it shows the scanner as an unknown device and no module.

I could not find the TWIKI you were referencing.
