Should probably be supported by this: https://manpages.debian.org/stretch/libsane-common/sane-pixma.5.en.html#FILES You'll need to put the IP in /etc/sane.d/pixma.conf as described in that section, eg. bjnp:// For my MG3250 it sometimes gives an error trying to connect the first time, but it wakes the scanner parts and it works the second time. Regards Hi All, How do I edit the pixma.conf file. I do not know how to log into a root account. In a terminal su works, but I am unable to get a working text editor.

Wine
Hi All, I am using wine running on a win95 hard disk (I can run windows 95 on hard disk). The win95 program is looking for a file like ASD.OTM but failing to find it. But under both windows 95 and Linux the file is Asd.otm. I have Filesystem=win95 in wine.conf and also have mount the windows volume with check=relaxed. What else should I do to get this working? TIA Cheers, Stephen Grant Brown

I did have 1.6.1 running, but I installed the 1.7.0 source files from cvs, installed the build dependecies and have not been able to run gnucash ever since. Thanks for your help. Cheers, Stephen Grant Brown PS Craig, I installed the files you suggested.
