Package: libsane Version: 1.0.21-9 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Hi,
Today I plugged a HP ScanJet 3400 C type C7720A to my PC via USB. It got recognized just fine: joostvb@bruhat:~% scanimage -L device `niash:libusb:002:005' is a Hewlett-Packard ScanJet 3400C flatbed scanner However, running "scanimage > t.pnm" gave me an error scanimage: open of device niash:libusb:002:005 failed: Device busy . After I powercycled the scanner, everything worked just fine. It took me some time before I considered doing just that. I believe changing the TROUBLESHOOTING section in debian/libsane.README.Debian in the sane-backends package, to read [...] or the device pointed to by /dev/scanner. If running "scanimage > t.pnm" gives an error like "scanimage: open of device niash:libusb:002:005 failed: Device busy", powercycling your scanner might help. If you encounter any problems with getting your device(s) recognized, [...] would have helped me, and saved me some time. Thanks! Bye, Joost PS: I've seen similar issue http://bugs.debian.org/598102 . However, that one doesn't seem to be applicable: I don't run scanbuttond. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.3 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages libsane depends on: ii adduser 3.112+nmu2 add and remove users and groups ii libavahi-client3 0.6.27-2+squeeze1 Avahi client library ii libavahi-common3 0.6.27-2+squeeze1 Avahi common library ii libc6 2.11.2-10 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libexif12 0.6.19-1 library to parse EXIF files ii libgphoto2-2 2.4.6-3 gphoto2 digital camera library ii libgphoto2-port0 2.4.6-3 gphoto2 digital camera port librar ii libieee1284-3 0.2.11-6 cross-platform library for paralle ii libjpeg62 6b1-1 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libsane-extras 1.0.21.2 API library for scanners -- extra ii libtiff4 3.9.4-5+squeeze3 Tag Image File Format (TIFF) libra ii libusb-0.1-4 2:0.1.12-16 userspace USB programming library ii libv4l-0 0.8.0-1 Collection of video4linux support ii makedev 2.3.1-89 creates device files in /dev ii udev 164-3 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo Versions of packages libsane recommends: ii sane-utils 1.0.21-9 API library for scanners -- utilit Versions of packages libsane suggests: ii avahi-daemon 0.6.27-2+squeeze1 Avahi mDNS/DNS-SD daemon pn hplip <none> (no description available) pn hpoj <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information
