[sane-devel] Canon MF4140

[Bob Dronski]

First of all, thanks to the both of you for replying.  I really want  
to keep this unit, and I was worried when I heard nothing for a few  
days.

Well, I did find a copy of libsane.rules in my build and it DID have  
the listing Daniel mentioned.  I manually moved the file into the  
empty udev folder.  But udev doesn't seem to be running

12947 ttys001    0:00.00 grep udev

Where would I find it? Did I have to do something special in the build?

Thanks,
bob
