Matthais: yeah, I also had to add "scanner" to my users groups, however, udev creates the scanner device with the owner:group root:root, when it should have been "root:scanner".
The solution is to add your user to the scanner group, then find what bus your USB scanner is on with "lsusb" (you get a number like 002:004), then sudo chown root:scanner /dev/bus/usb/002/004 (or what ever the numbers are) I have to do this every time I plug in the scanner, or turn on the computer. -- [hardy regression] No scanner support (Kooka) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/180932 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is subscribed to kdegraphics in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
