Hi Mark, Please send your requests for help to the sane-devel mailing list. There are many more people hanging out there that may be able to help. mailto:sane-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org As for the URL you mention, that is a story from 1998. While the basics haven't changed (much) a lot of other things have. Please visit: http://sane.alioth.debian.org/ for more recent information. > No scanners were identified.
