[sane-devel] Problem installing new HP5400 backend

[Thomas Soumarmon]

Hi Robe,

Maybe you did not indicate in dll.conf that it should load hp5400 backend ?
edit /usr/local/etc/sane.d/dll.conf or /etc/sane.d/dll.conf 
and on a new line add : hp5400 

Note that direct load of backend (e.g. with -d hp5400) has not been tested 
yet.

Let us know if it works.
