When I run Xsane the response is "no device available".

However, my old usb scanner is the most classic: Epson Perfection 1650.

It works natively on any Linux or BSD distribution.

scanimage -L : device 'epson:libusb:000:002' is a Epson GT 8200 flatbed scanner

dmesg : ugen0.2: <EPSON EPSON Scanner> at usbus0

How can I get it to be found by Xsane?

Many thanks,

Christophe

Hey Christophe,

Can you run ktrace+kdump on the executable? You'll want to post the
output of kdump somewhere (warning: the output will likely be quite
long).

Thanks,

you forgot to setup devfs?

/etc/devfs.rules

[usb4users=10]
add path 'ugen*' mode 0660 group operator
add path 'usb/*' mode 0660 group operator
add path 'xpt*' mode 0660 group operator

/etc/rc.conf
devfs_system_ruleset="usb4users"

reboot

You know what ? I had 2 different devfs.rules !!!

And nothing in my rc.conf file...

I must have got my fingers tangled somewhere.

Anyway, it's all good now.

Thanks.

Cool cool. I completely forgot about devfs. I'm glad you were able to
get it working. :-)
