Interesting, running the same script with dapper (not tested on breezy) with a Canon LiDE 25 is causing a segmentation fault too at the same stage, but my error in /var/log/messages is:
Sep 18 19:07:08 localhost python: hpssd [WARN] Inrecognized URI: socket://printer2l:9100 Sep 18 19:07:08 localhost python: hpssd [WARN] Inrecognized URI: socket://192.168.1.4:9100 Note that I have an HP 1320n on the ip 192.168.1.4 port 9100. Looking through /usr/sbin/hpssd (python script) I don't think the problem comes from here as these errors are also written when doing sane.get_devices() -- sane.open() causes segmentation fault https://launchpad.net/bugs/50159 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
