Well at least I think so, I'm scared to try another scan for fear it will screw up again. Here are some details: - When I followed the steps above the scanner worked, but ONLY with iscan. - The sane-find-scanner program doesn't even look for the scanner. - skanlite now finds it, displays the panel showing what is found, and then immediately shows a dialog saying "Opening the selected scanner failed". Of course you can't actually see what device it's trying to use because that info goes away too fast to read. I'll assume there's a REALLY GOOD technical reason for that (or an option I don't know about). - I made some mistakes too. I had put an original copy of dll.conf in my /temp directory, and was running skanlite from there. Oops, Bad Jim! I noticed with strace that it was reading that one (instead of in /etc/sane.d). I don't normally do stupid things like that, but when I do ... - I still had tcpdump going when this finally worked. On my previous 9000 attempts it just sat there, so when it started spewing out packets I must have jumped 2 feet out of my chair. I am going to clean up my notes and put out a detailed account of how I got this to work. Thanks to everyone for their help, I hope to return the favor very soon. I should have joined this group a long time ago.
