I think that's about what mine looks like. Not sure that any scanner is
ever recognized as such by the driver; that's why the device is "sgx" for
"scsi generic". I did get my IIcx working with sane if I remember
correctly. I was having a ton of problems getting all the zillions of
patches installed correctly to have sane and gimp both work together, and
that's where I left off a month or two ago. But it was working with the
command line version, as well as hpscanpbm (an earlier command-line scanner
driver).
