[sane-devel] epson perfection 4870 photo - problem with slides

[Ciro Soto]

Hi,
I have a problem wit Xsane and my epson perfection 4870 photo.
I am usin xsane 0.97 on Linux Fedora Core 3 kernel 2.6.10-1.766_FC3smp
The problem is that I can't scan transparencies. The lid lamp doesn't
turn on. I'm using flatbed/slide.=20

FYI, If I use transparency unit/slide, it freezes.

I tried with the epson software on win-XP, and it works fine.
What could  the problem be?
thank you
Ciro
