[sane-devel] sane-devel Digest, Vol 173, Issue 25

[Monosij Dutta-Roy]

Thanks Yuri.

Just to confirm - just adding myself to saned and scanner still does not
work.

To follow the link you sent above - I still need to follow through with the
section
*Create a rule for the device* and *Test the rule* -
since *Ubuntu updated the scanner policy* - it seems like?

the Create rule seems complicated - so will go ahead with doing so once I
get your confirmation and let you know how it works.

Meanwhile - it works great as sudo and sudo gscan2pdf works great as well!

Thank you much.
