RE: UMAX found but xscanimage not working right.

I tried that. It says:
find-scanner: found scanner "UMAX SuperVista S-12 V1.2" at device
/dev/scanner
find-scanner: found scanner "UMAX SuperVista S-12 V1.2" at device /dev/sg1

Then if I try typing xscanimage sg1 or xscanimage /dev/sg1 or if I
put
/dev/scanner or /dev/sg1 in my umax.conf file, it doesn't work.
If I put /dev/sgb or /dev/sgb0 in umax.conf and invoke it by just typing
xscanimage then it comes up with a little dialog box asking me to choose
either
pnm:0 or pnm:1.

The reason I tried /dev/sgb in umax.conf file is the following message in
/var/adm/messages
Oct 1 10:33:50 maniac kernel: Detected scsi generic sgb at scsi0, channel
0, id 5, lun 0

I get this everytime I try to access the scanner, for example when I run
find-scanner, or xscanimage.

Any other ideas please?
Thanks.
