[sane-devel] FW: Sus3 7.3, Sane 1.05, HP5300C

[Art Fore]

Modprobe does nothing really. I done a modprobe -l scanner, still nothing.
Searched for hp5300* with Konquerer and found nothing. I have hp53xx module
compiled into kernel though, would that affect it?

I don't know how to tell it to use hp5300.o, I just modprobe'd it and it
found it.

If you're using bash for a shell

export SANE_SG_BUFFERSIZE=32768

or if csh or tcsh

setenv SANE_SG_BUFFERSIZE 32768
