[GRLUG] sane-artec eplus48u

[Godwin ...]

Jordan,

I'm running Ubuntu Dapper on my laptop and took a peek
at the /etc/sane.d/artec_eplus48.conf file.  I see the
section for your scanner's ProductID.  Do you have the
Windows firmware file it requires in the listed
location?

option artecFirmwareFile
/usr/share/sane/artec_eplus48u/Artec48.usb

  And, do you have a "/dev/usbscanner' device file?
ls -l /dev/usb*

What does 'dmesg' output when you plug in your
scanner?

G-
