Stef,

Thanks for your interest.

I have uploaded the file to my web server here:
http://axxium.us/scanner/HPScan_Sonny_Linux_20091030.tar.bz2

If there is anymore information I can give I would be happy to give. I
currently have windows 7 running in a VM for the sole reason of being
able to use this scanner. I would love to have a native driver.

Cheers,
Michael
