Public bug reported: Binary package hint: libsane
I have to run xsane with root privileges to get access to my scanner, other way xsane detects only my usb PC webcam. I use ScanMagic 600 CP scanner connected via parallel port. I believe that occurs because libsane is not compiled with libieee1284 support. Compilation with libieee1284 option could solve the problem http://penguin-breeder.org/sane/mustek_pp/ This affects Jaunty Jackalope and probably Keramic Koala ** Affects: sane-backends (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: libsane quiteinsane sane sane-backends xsane -- xsane and other sane frontends don't recognize scanner device without root privileges https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/380625 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
