The problem is not limited to multifunction devices. My HP5590 scanjet scanner was not recognised by scanimage though sane-find-scanner found it. No problem with my Ubuntu 10.04 partition. I believe their /lib/udev/rules.d/70-acl.rules covers it with: "... # USB scanners ENV{libsane_matched}=="yes", ENV{ACL_MANAGE}="1" ..." My problem was fixed with installing libsane version 1.0.22~git1.0.21-157-g126c70d-1 from experimental which has in /lib/udev/rules.d/60-libsane.rules : "... ENV{libsane_matched}=="yes", RUN+="/usr/bin/setfacl -m g:scanner:rw $env{DEVNAME}" ..."
This really was a show stopper for me and caused much blood on the floor. As far as I am concerned this bug should be upgraded to grave, or, better. fixed. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
