    Hi everyone

    Am trying desperately to come to terms with SANE, kernels and modules. As I
    see it I have the choice between a SCSI scanner and a USB one for Linux.
    The latter seem freely available whilst the former have to be ordered
    through a specialist dealer (here in Spain at least). Does SANE recognise
    both in the same way or is the way that they are set up different?
    Apparently, my kernel (SuSE 6.3 from the box) has support for USB
    backported from the 2.3 kernel. Does this mean that I can plug in a
    supported USB scanner and have SANE recognise it as a device?

    Any help however small much appreciated.

    THanks from Steve at FeF, Spain.
