Ok.

Looks ok. I don't know if the "MODELx" is normal, however.

Any errors? Does the image look correct (probably gray, low resolution)?

Ok.

I don't know the details, but basically it doesn't looks wrong.

When you do "telnet localhost 6566" can you type something or do you
get "connection refused" immediately? Any output in syslog after this?

If you get "connection refused", saned can't be started for some
reason. Is the path to saned correct?

Ok.

Please also try that (mentioned in my last email):
