HP 6300C scanner (in USB mode) and Debian - PITA
Hi all -
I have a Debian Sid system (AMD64). I'm trying to get an HP 6300C scanner (via USB; it has both USB and SCSI interfaces) working. The appropriate SANE packages are installed. /etc/sane.d/hp.conf looks like this: Code:
#scsi HP Code:
[root@kenobi: ~]$ lsusb Code:
[root@kenobi: ~]$ sane-find-scanner However, scanimage definitely can't find it: Code:
[root@kenobi: ~]$ scanimage -L SANE's project homepage says this scanner is fully supported. So...anyone else have any bright ideas??? TIA -- Bob |
OK, well, I commented out all of the other backends in /etc/sane.d/dll.conf, then rebooted the box, and though scanimage -L is still spotty (it did actually see it once), I can now run xsane (but only as root).
A mortal user gets the "no devices available" box. A dump of /proc/bus/usb/devices yields: Code:
<snip> Code:
(1) But xsane will still only find it if launched by the root user. What am I missing here in able to allow my regular user to access the scanner? I assume, since it's using libusb, I don't have to specify another device file for it to use. Nevertheless, I created a symlink from /dev/scanner to /dev/usb/scanner0. However, all of the /dev/usb/scanner* device nodes have 666 permissions, so THAT shouldn't be an issue either. Thanks...Bob |
