sudo apt-get install libsane=1.0.31
after which it seems to have worked (well, I have scanned the same document 6
times without problem). Now to get the gamma correction sorted out - but that
can wait till tomorrow.
I seem to have spoken too soon. I was testing it with Simple Scan.
But when I tried Xsane and took a preview, the problem was back again. (Xsane is
at version 0.999 if that helps).
Oddly, when I did a full scan with Xsane, it came out correct. But I really need
the preview facility in order to find the proper gamma settings. I have a nice
test chart and the three test probes in the preview should make that much easier.
So thanks for all your help.
