Hi All,

I upgraded the system to Linux Kernel 3.10.32-gentoo, sane-backends-1.0.24-r1 and brscan3-0.2.11-4.i386.rpm.

It worked before the upgrade but no longer.

I've been looking at issues like no usbfs or usbdevfs and cannot find out how to get these back into the kernel or even if they are needed.

sane-find-scanner returns:
Quote:
found USB scanner (vendor=0x04f9 [Brother], product=0x01fb [MFC-490CW]) at libusb:001:008


scanimage -L returns:
Quote:
No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different, check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages).


Any ideas anyone?

in /etc/sane.d/dll.conf

is the brother3 entry (or similar) available ?


running scanimage as root makes a difference ?

/etc/sane.d/dll.conf contains

and I have created /etc/sane.d/brother3.conf and it contains
Quote:
#Brother MFC-490CW
usb 0x04f9 0x01fb



ls -l /dev/usb/ lists only
Quote:
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 180, 96 Mar 25 13:12 hiddev0
crw-rw---- 1 root lp 180, 0 Mar 28 08:04 lp0
crw-rw---- 1 root lp 180, 1 Mar 25 22:24 lp1
which corresponds to the 2 printers I have connected. hiddev0 I think is the scanner. I've manually set the permissions on hiddev0 for the moment.

switched the connected USB cable ?

try connecting the printer on a USB 2.0 port,


Code:
scanimage -d libusb:001:008
works ?


did you upgrade the brscan3 library/wrapper, too ?

how about permissions and udev ?

extract the rpm-file like so:

Code:
rpm2targz brscan3-0.2.11-4.i386.rpm


then take a look what files are included and (potentially) got installed, afterwards check those locally for permissions (had issues with those in the past, too)


shouldn't the lp module be blacklisted ? I remember having had issues with it:

Everything in the RPM seams to be there. I cannot find "brscan3" wrapper script in the RPM.

dmesg says this when I plug in the MFC-490cw:

It can be seen that the printer and card slots get recognised but not the scanner.
I got udev to trigger a script when that paricular entry was hit. It got triggered so the device is being recognised by udev and setting libsane_matched. Although I cannot see that environment variable by running "set" as root.
I'm rapidly loosing the will to live.

If all that fails is the scanner, please, check my post in this other thread. I've been fighting with a similar issue for months and just managed to solve it. Check it in case it's the same thing:
