[sane-devel] HP-5370C problem with FC-3 -

[Bob Goodwin]

I can't get the HP scanner to work with Fedora Core 3. The computer
seems to recognize it as being connected to the USB port but attempting
to use it results in a segmentation fault.

It does work with Windows 98 but that's inconvenient requiring reboot.

Any suggestion appreciated.

Thank you.
