Hi Simon,

Thanks for the deails.

I have loaded Fedora 8 & on top of that I loaded

sane-backends-1.0.19-10.fc9.i386.rpm
sane-backends-devel-1.0.19-10.fc9.i386.rpm
sane-backends-libs-1.0.19-10.fc9.i386.rpmand compiled the sane tar ball.
./configure
make 
make install

with this I am able to run my hp 4370 scanner.

But I am not able to run my HP 5590 scanner. as the so file for 5590 is missing in  /usr/lib/sane, please let me know how to get that so file for 5590.

Thanks
