Quoting Andrew Greig (pushin.linux@gmail.com):
I have a SCSI scanner which normally "just works" under Linux.
Make is presumably Epson, but what's the model? Suggestion: Whenever seeking help with Linux support of hardware, it is extremely useful to provide accurate make/model data. (If you happen to have chipset identities, that is also good, but your helpers can determine those given accurate make/model data.)
It might be that more than one SANE back-end is trying to support your scanner. Try temporarily commenting out the lines for 'epson' and 'epkowa' in /etc/sane.d/dll.conf , and trying again. More tips here:
Hey Rick, Haven't seen a post from you for ages, I am very glad that this thread brought you out. Absolutely correct! Machine is an Epson GT7000S for SCSI. The aix scsi drivers are loaded as always. Where I struggle with this one is that this is the first time in 9 years that this scanner has not "just worked" after a new install. I have this niggling thought in the back of my mind that it may be a group membership issue. But what group? And it doesn’t work as root. Thanks Andrew Greig
