Running xsane from console on my wife's Compaq (updated Feisty) gives the segmentation fault right away. The "Searching for scanner" just flashes and things die.
Also, power down now fails. Just stops with splash screen. Possibly related to bug report 43961. Turning off splash gives a msg about 4 lines above "System halted" that libhal shutdown has failed. Need to press power switch and hold to shut off. I wanted to completely remove xsane (then reinstall), but it would remove ubuntu-desktop. A little too much tight integration. Suggestions on how to better diagnose things welcome. For information, I also tried booting the penultimate kernel (2.6.20-15 rather than 2.6.20-16) with same results.
