Hello,

I like to confirm that xsane behaviour also on my system
and even more when I run xsane when "scanimage -L" shows
"No scanners were identified", then xsane first shows
this notification popup:
------------------------------------------------------------
   No devices
   no devices available
   [Close]       [Help]
------------------------------------------------------------
and after clicking [Help]
xsane shows a subsequent notification popup:
------------------------------------------------------------
   No devices available
   Possible reasons:
   1) There really is no device that is supported by SANE
   2) Supported devices are busy
   3) The permissions for the device file do not allow you
      to use it - try as root
   4) The backend is not loaded by SANE (man sane-dll)
   5) The backend is not configured correctly
      (man sane-"backendname")
   6) Possibly there is more than one SANE version installed
   [Close]
------------------------------------------------------------
clicking [Close] finishes xsane.


Kind Regards
