Hello, I am trying to find some help for using a (rather old) Canon FS4000US film scanner with VueScan. Here is my problem : I am running Debian Wheezy (32 bits), and I have been using the scanner for quite a while under previous Debian versions. Now VueScan doesn't detect the scanner any more, it says "No scanner was found attached to your computer". I suppose the problem appeared when I upgraded from Squeeze to Wheezy (I'm not 100% sure since I don't use the scanner very often, but what else could it be ?)
VueScan works OK with my HP Photosmart b109a printer/scanner, and the Canon works OK with the Windows version of VueScan ... I didn't find anything useful in the group archive (or on the Net). Someone suggested that I should try to find an open source driver, but I could't find one, and that wouldn't explain why everything worked on Squeeze. Below are some logs for dmesg and lsusb after starting, stopping, and restarting the scanner. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Jean-François Bosc, France --------------- tarbes:~> dmesg [ 0.000000] Initializing cgroup subsys cpuset ...
