Hi and thanks for the note.

Well I can't get xsane to work.  Might be that I have the scanner on a USB 
connection. Or that my scanner (hp3570c) is not supported by xsane.  

Funny thing is, RH8 sees the scanner and of course the appropriate modules is 
loaded.  

I tried vueScan and it doesn't support my scanner so that is out. Although I 
did try and find some combination of loading and reloading the module. No 
luck.  It would never go.

So - I am left without any supporting software. But ,  as you mentioned - get 
the xsane plugin for Gimp and see if that works?  I will have to check into 
that.

I presume the plugin is available at the Gimp site?  Or is there another spot?
