[sane-devel] Testers needed? Pixma MX925

[tsp at posteo.de]

Hi Rolf,

unfortunately the scanner still doesn't work.
I downloaded to some folder the 1.0.25git (backend and frontend), 
installed it like described (at least I tried it), restarted my printer 
and computer but simplescan still can't find the scanner...
Maybe it's something with the USB port? But the printer function works 
fine.

$ sudo ldconfig -v | grep libsane

$ cat /etc/group | grep scanner

$ sudo scanimage -L

No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different,
check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the
sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation
which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages).


$ sane-find-scanner

   # sane-find-scanner will now attempt to detect your scanner. If the
   # result is different from what you expected, first make sure your
   # scanner is powered up and properly connected to your computer.

   # No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make 
sure that
   # you have loaded a kernel SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter.

   # No USB scanners found. If you expected something different, make 
sure that
   # you have loaded a kernel driver for your USB host controller and 
have setup
   # the USB system correctly. See man sane-usb for details.
   # SANE has been built without libusb support. This may be a reason
   # for not detecting USB scanners. Read README for more details.

   # Not checking for parallel port scanners.

   # Most Scanners connected to the parallel port or other proprietary 
ports
   # can't be detected by this program.

   # You may want to run this program as root to find all devices. Once 
you
   # found the scanner devices, be sure to adjust access permissions as
   # necessary.


Thanks again!!
Thomas
