ldetect has nothing to do with detecting scanners. scannerdrake just uses sane-find-scannner from sane

Hi, This bug was filed against cauldron, but we do not have cauldron at the moment. Please report whether this bug is still valid for Mageia 2. Thanks :) Cheers, marja

For me this bug is valid with Mageia 2. When I passed a param to xsane I'm able to launch it correctly however: [dmesg extract] [2673721.346787] usb 3-2: new full-speed USB device number 5 using uhci_hcd [2673721.522686] usb 3-2: New USB device found, idVendor=04b8, idProduct=0110 [2673721.522688] usb 3-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 [2673721.522690] usb 3-2: Product: EPSON Scanner [2673721.522691] usb 3-2: Manufacturer: EPSON [sane-find-scanner extract] found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8 [EPSON], product=0x0110 [EPSON Scanner]) at libusb:003:005 $ scanimage -L No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different, check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages). $ scanimage -d epson:libusb:003:005 --batch-count=1 --batch=out%d.tif -p Scanning 1 pages, incrementing by 1, numbering from 1 Scanning page 1 Scanned page 1. (scanner status = 5) So works. xsane alone doesn't.

I think I found the issue. In /etc/sane.d/dll.conf the epson entry is commented out. Putting it back solves the issue. I see that as a regression from Mageia 1 but there may be some good reasons for that. HTH, Bruno.

Is this still current? As of today I can't use my Epson Expressionist 10000XL USB scanner with the default uncommented epson driver (epkowa) but uncommenting epson2 in /etc/sane.d/dll.conf gets me the (greatly inferior) epson driver.

oops, hit enter too soon... a more recent extract from journalctl when the scanner was working: Apr 27 04:46:43 slave.barefootcomputing.com kernel: usb 3-1: New USB device found, idVendor=04b8, idProduct=0129 Apr 27 04:46:43 slave.barefootcomputing.com kernel: usb 3-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 Apr 27 04:46:43 slave.barefootcomputing.com kernel: usb 3-1: Product: EPSON Scanner Apr 27 04:46:43 slave.barefootcomputing.com kernel: usb 3-1: Manufacturer: EPSON

MGA4TOO: i removed the "#" in the line "#epson" in /etc/sane.d/dll.conf to get my Epson perfection 1660 PHOTO recognised. Is there any reason to have the # there in the default file?

The reason was : # Comment out entry for the "epson" backend in /etc/sane.d/dll.conf as # we have also Epson's "epkowa" backend which supports the same # scanners perl -p -i -e 's/^(\s*epson)/\#$1/g' %{buildroot}%{_sysconfdir}/sane.d/dll.conf As it seems to create more problems than it solves, I removed this in Cauldron.
