Scanner Tool can't find scanner
On the re-install I opted to install both the KDE and the Gnome GUI's. Before I only did the Gnome. That's the only thing I can think of that I did differently.
I tried the FC9 upgrade and it was all good but the Scanner Tool (shane) still can't find the scanner.
I need to find out how to help the Scanner Tool find the scanner.
Im using FC9 with an Intel Duel Core 64 with 2 GB Ram and a 160 GB 7200 RPM SATA.

Re: Scanner Tool can't find scanner
I can't see the nvidia kernel as the source of this problem. Still, I would like to see a procedure and software.
I tend to see a cabling or hardware problem as the cause of this.
Is the scanner visible to a live cd distro from another Linux?
Perhaps you need different drivers form the Scanner manufacturer. Any clues in /var/log/messages?

Re: Scanner Tool can't find scanner
Since the FC9 upgrade the Nvidia kernel build fails at the point where it tries to replace the old kernel. However, I've always been able to use the Scanner Tool even without the Nvidia driver compiled into the kernel.

Re: Scanner Tool can't find scanner
Open up a shell as root, and then change the LANG variable to en_US like this:
# export LANG=en_US
Next, run hp-setup.
Then, run scan-find-scanner and see if your scanner is recognizable.
Good luck!

Re: Scanner Tool can't find scanner
It seems everything knows about the scanner but the scanner tool.
