Your scanner "Compeye Simples 8110U" is not supported: http://www.sane-project.org/unsupported/trust-combiscan-19200.html > >From the manpages, I found that the scanner device should be called > something like /dev/scanner or /dev/usb/scanner or /dev/sg0, but there's > nothing like that. Here's the output of "ls /dev": Since linux kernel 2.6 most of usb devices are managed using libusb, so there isn't any device node related to usb scanners at /dev. Anyway there isn't any backend to manage that scanner. Jonathan Bravo
