Hello,

I'm having problems using my 9630P scanner on RH9.

Firstly, I've got the scanner connected to the PC with a parallel cable.

I then downloaded sane-backends-1.0.14 and sane-frontends-1.0.12 and did
./configure, make and make install on both. No problems so far.

My /etc/ld.so.conf has an entry /usr/local/lib/ and I did /sbin/ldconfig

My /usr/local/etc/sane.d/ has an entry plustek_pp

In /proc/sys/dev/parport/parport0/ if I do "cat modes", I get
PCSPP,TRISTATE,EPP

My /usr/local/etc/sane.d/plustek_pp.conf has entries:

[direct]
device 0x378
option warmup    -1
option lOffOnEnd -1
option lampOff   -1
[direct]
device parport0

When I do "scanimage -L", I get "No scanners were identified..."

If I set export SANE_DEBUG_DLL=255 and export
SANE_DEBUG_BACKENDNAME=255, I get output including:

[dll] add_backend: adding backend `plustek_pp'

[dll] init: backend `plustek_pp' is version 1.0.0
[dll] load: searching backend `plustek' in `/usr/local/lib/sane'
[dll] load: trying to load `/usr/local/lib/sane/libsane-plustek.so.1'
[dll] load: dlopen()ing `/usr/local/lib/sane/libsane-plustek.so.1'

[dll] sane_get_devices: found 0 devices


Also, there's a printer installed on lp0 (daisy changed after the
scanner).

Why can't I find the scanner?

Best regards,

Stephen.
