The assertions were obviously unwarranted and without foundation.īTW, it is quite common to think that opposition to an idea is an insult to the person expressing the idea. It is not a useful route to follow when the premise of "lying" is based on a misconception, as the successful conclusion to the issue indicates. Comparing what scangear and xsane do is not comparing like and like as they both go about scanning in different ways. Grow up.įor the record, my intent was not to insult anyone but to point out the technical inconsistencies in the original and later posts. On the basis of this tthread you appear to be someone who takes any criticism of any aspect of Linux to be a personal insult. Turns out that you saw my original post as some sort of attack on your favourite OS and thus on you.Īpart from telling me that ScanGear is not Sane-aware (correctly, i hope) you have contributed nothing to this thread.
#Scangear tool cannot find scanner software#
I'm just trying to work out where I am going wrong.Īt first I interpreted your mention of a 'target' to mean that I was pointing the software at the wrong backend or something like that. Saying that ScanGear works OK indicates that there is nothing wrong with my system on a physical level, so I merely need to get the software right.Īccording to the Sane site my scanner is supported and I accept that I must have missed a stage or typed something incorrectly. HAWR gave me useful links to a couple of relevant web sites and I probably just need a a little more assistance.
#Scangear tool cannot find scanner how to#
So your idea of 'help' is to insult someone who asks for help.I was not complaining but trying to find some guidance on how to get my scanner working with Sane and its various GUI front ends. Lets's see if they tell us that scangearmp2 provides nothing for xsane to use.

Let's see if they give you the level of detail you are gettting here. How? By complaining to Canon and not to us.
