Hi Neil, First, thanks a lot to answer me, you are the first one... and the only one. Just for information, I have a Epson 1250 scanner. It is not supported by sane (as documented), but it worked for me. The low quality scan pushed me to try iscan, which gave me high quality pix.

I just installed sane-backends-1.0.12-4.i386.rpm xsane-0.91-1.i386.rpm sane-frontends-1.0.11-2.i386.rpm I removed iscan. I don not have any more "libpthread" error But using the rpm version, I don't know what to do with the plustek-backend. Is this include in sane package...as I do not want to blow up my scanner ;-) Thanks anyway for your REALLY kind help. -- Philippe, Chiangmai, Thailand -- Shrike-list mailing list Shrike-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/shrike-list
