Update on my report of 2014-11-05: On the same system as before (see my 2014-11-05 message), still running Mint 17 64bits, I have now installed both a USB2.0 board in the Motherboard (Syba PCI-express USB2.0 5 port host controller card) and a USB3.0 board (Anker USB 3.0 PCI-E card).
My Fujitsu SnapScan S1500 works fine with the USB2.0 and fails with the USB3.0 board (running gscand2pdf). Strangely the MSI B85M-G43 Motherboard ports that are labelled USB2.0 and the Motherboard ports labeled USB3.0 both fail (bizarre). So (in summary) it seems that installing a USB 2.0 (not USB 3.0) card in the motherboard will "solve" the problem of using the Fujitsu SnapScan S1500 in Mint 17. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1102797 Title: 04c5:11a2 Fujitsu ScanSnap S1500 does not work on USB3 ports To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1102797/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
