    Hello
    I have a Microtek ScanMaker II scanner that I've been using successfuly under SuSE Linux 6.3 with the shipped sane.
    I wanted to make a 'scanning server' with an old Sun SPARCStation IPC that I have and that is running NetBSD 1.3, so I downloded the latest sane-backends, compiled and installed (actually the ports collection did that for me).
    When I type "scanimage" the scanner (which is a 3 pass scanner) gives one pass and returns, and when it reaches the initial position, I get an error "scanimage: sane_start: Invalid argument"
    I also set up saned in that machine to be able to scan through the network. When I set up my SuSE's sane to search that host for scanners, everytme I ran sane (for instance sane --list-devices) produced a segmentation fault (after the Sun machine reported a connection from the other host). I decided to upgrade to the latest sane veion, so I uninstalled the RPM sane that came with my SuSE, downloaded, compiled and installed the latest sane-backends (which should be the same version the Sun machine has, since I installed it there only yesterday) and configured net.conf again. Now everytime I type scanimage I get no devices found. (or no scanners were identified...)
    Um... Help?
    The Sun does't have a mouse, so I can't try any UI other than scanimage, but I don't think it's scanimage's fault anyway.

    Thanks

    Aristide
