Re: scanner not recognized

I found that I could not use my Lide (I think it is a 10 - I am not at home
right now) on USB-3 ports but it works without a problem on USB-2.  Try all
the ports on your computer.

 LSUSB doesn't find it on the scan of USB ports. I suspect the kernel
 module is not being loaded. How can I find out which module is
 needed and how do I make sure it's loaded on every boot ?

I tried all the USB ports on this machine. None of them worked. 
They are all USB 2.0 ports.

Have you checked that the cable is good?

An USB devices appears on the bus even without kernel module.

Look at dmesg; nowadays, dmesg -w is quite convenient: start it, hit enter
a few times to make space, plug the device, and you see the corresponding
messages directly.

  Tried that - nothing at all. Changed the cable. Nothing. I
 strongly suspect it's dead. Damn! :)
 

By an astoundingly strange coincidence, my LiDE 20 wasn't recognised by
sid about two hours ago.

Unfortunately, the simple answer, as revealed by /var/log/syslog, was
that my USB hub didn't have enough current to drive the scanner. I
plugged it into one of the tower USB ports, and it buzzed and lit up
and ran happily.

It would be nice if it was that easy for you. If it isn't, I can drag
it back downstairs (it's usually attached to the wife's Win7 machine)
and try to work out what it needs. A glance at lsmod shows me nothing
that I can associate with scanning, but there's quite a lot there I
can't identify at all. The syslog file doesn't mention anything being
loaded.

Bad luck. Thinking about it, our scanner is fifteen years old, so if
yours is similar, that's not too bad. Might be worth opening it up to
see if a connector has fallen off.

One thing it isn't is fast, as it's USB-powered, and I did look into
getting a quicker one a few years ago. But everyone has all-in-one
printers nowadays, and the remaining scanners are mostly somewhat
specialised and quite expensive.

There is a reasonably-priced LiDE 120, but it appears it is not yet
supported by SANE, and neither are the cheaper HPs. All the cheaper
ones look to be USB-powered. I'll be a bit more careful with ours...
