Hi,
I've been happily using SANE for some months now on Debian Unstable.
Did a large dist-upgrade, now SANE is broken.
Running SANE 1.0.9-2.
When I do 'usbview', the display shows all USB devices fine.
My other USB devices are working fine.
But when I do 'scanimage -L', a line of rubbish gets printed out to my
parallel port laser printer (!), then scanimage just hangs. Ditto for
xcane and xscanimage.
I suspect the problem is *not* with SANE, but not absolutely sure on
this.
Much stuff on debian unstable is presently broken - developers are
admitting that.
But can anyone please advise me of a workaround that'll get my scanning
working again in the meantime?
Thanks in advance
Cheers
David
