Sorry Mark,
There is more, we have steak knives.
Use AirDroid to transfer data from the HuaWei to your Linux Box, app on the phone (D/L the app over wi-fi) and web Interface on the Linux box. A QR code on the Linux Box is scanned by the AirDroid app on the phone and connects the two devices, very slick.
Read again, not having connectivity. I am transferring image files by USB stick, when I can. I tried to set up bluetooth, but issues with the computer end. Also the tablet is very frustrating. Quality is not there, built to a price, not a standard, reminds me of Tony Abbot, in a very bad way. Have been reading and reading. Someone has had problems, then it just worked with Ubuntu 17.10, but may have carried over a PPA from the previous version when he upgraded (not a clean install). Another clue might be that the USB printer kernel driver may be preventing scanimage from seeing the scanner. I can look at blacklisting the kernel module, but then may need to undo and reboot if I set up a USB connected printer, and have to choose between printing and scanning. That will get resolved, eventually. Regards, Mark Trickett
