I have a Canon Pixma MP970 This used to work via gimp. When I invoke the scanner, xsane starts up and I could easily scan and edit images in gimp. No longer. Now I get the xsane screen that says scanning for scanner. It disappears after several seconds. So I followed the instructions on the FAQ. Here is the output: > 4:44 PM ~ $ SANE_DEBUG_PIXMA=255 scanimage > test.pnm > [sanei_debug] Setting debug level of pixma to 255. > [pixma] pixma is compiled with pthread support. > [pixma] pixma

This has not worked for months. Any ideas? Fred Leason
