[sane-devel] scanimage -L doesn't work with a supported scanner

[Daniela]

Hi list!

I use SANE for the first time.
My scanner (CanoScan N650U) can't be detected by any of the utilities except 
sane-find-scanner. It is detected at boot time by the OS (FreeBSD 4.9).
When I set the debug level to 128, this is the output:
(I also tried it as root, that gives the same results)


[sanei_debug] Setting debug level of dll to 128.

I might as well have done something wrong, I went through all documentation I 
could find, but I don't have a clue.

The odd thing is, when I try it as a normal user it always finishes quickly, 
but as root it took very long time (now it doesn't any more, but I didn't 
change the configuration). When I did a "ps ax" at this moment, I saw that 
the process was in disk wait state.
