F9: Scanning with canon lide-30 (USB) produces awful noises
Hi, my scanner is an USB scanner, Canon Lide-30. Since some weeks, sometimes when scanning, the scanner produces awful noises during scan (like a saw), and the scanner input is unusable. rpm -qa '*sane*' libsane-hpaio-2.8.2-2.fc9.i386 xsane-0.995-3.fc9.i386 xsane-gimp-0.995-3.fc9.i386 sane-backends-1.0.19-10.fc9.i386 sane-backends-libs-1.0.19-10.fc9.i386 Does somebody have similar problems? I think this is a software problem, because I never have this behaviour in WinXP. I found some entries in the Ubuntu forums, but no solution.

I've had something similar, but my scanner is old, and the toothed belt that drives the sled up and down isn't as flexible as it used to be. If I pull the belt out of the mechanism, it doesn't spring back into a circular shape, it stays in a long thin loop, as if it were still wrapped around the cogs. Sometimes it does skip some teeth the first time I use it after it's sat untouched for weeks, or months. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ uname -r 2.6.25.9-76.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.

Tim, thanks for your answer, but, again, I think it's a software problem because I have no problems under WinXP. -- Joachim Backes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
