I just installed a Microtek X6EL, then xsane, sane, and gimp. That's all I had to do and this scanner was running. Oh, there were a couple of rough spots. First I had to recompile the kernel with scsi generic support. THen I had to run MAKEDEV in /dev to get /dev/sgX. (Why weren't they there?

Scanners are supported under sane for Linux. I've got a AGFA Snapscan 1236S SCSI scanner and this works fine with sane, xscanimage, the X window interface and xsane, a separate X interface for sane. This also works directly as a plug-in for gimp as well. I would recommend going to : www.mostang.

Yes scanners do work on Linux. I am using a Mustek scanner with a Adansys scsi card and it works great and it is easy to setup using SANE to control the scanner.
