[sane-devel] Problems with Fujitsu S1500

Hi everyone,

I am running an up-to-date system under Ubuntu 9.04 and have
sane-backends v. 1.0.19 installed. The device works flawlessly under
Windows (booted on the same computer), but it is not found in Ubuntu.

I have tried using the scanner from the command line with scanimage -L
and scanadf -L (both as myself and as root) as well as with the
graphical frontends xsane and gscan2pdf. All four programs report that
no usable scanners can be found.

When I run sane-find-scanner at the command line (either as myself or
root), it finds the scanner and reports the correct manufacturer and
product codes. However, sane-find-scanner also finds a second scanner
that does not exist, regardless of whether or not the S1500 is
connected. I'm not sure what to think about this. I include the output
from sane-find-scanner -v -v after the text of my message.

I have modified /etc/sane.d/fujitsu.conf to include the appropriate
manufacturer and product codes:

#scansnap S1500
usb 0×04c5 0×11a2

As helpfully suggested by Raman, I have ensured that fujitsu is not
commented out in /etc/sane.d/dll.conf

Also as suggested by Raman, I have checked /var/log/messages for
errors upon connection of the scanner. The log shows the scanner
connecting, but does not report any errors.

I have also tried building sane-backends from the most recent source
(1.0.20) to see if Ubuntu's package is somehow causing the error, but
I get the same exact errors when I do this.

I'm not sure what I could do next to try and get this thing to work.
Any suggestions or information that you can contribute would be
greatly appreciated. I really hope that I'm just making some stupid
mistake.

Thanks,
Sean Edington
