Hello,

I believe you have solved a problem that has vexed me for days during which I have spent MANY hours in fruitless attempts to get my Epson Perfection 1660 Photo scanner running under Lindows 3.0. I have tried packages from Lindows CNR, Epson Kowa, Mozilla, MIT, etc. etc. The farthest I have ever gotten is to have sane-find-scanner locate the scanner. scanimage -L returns "no device found" as does everything else.

I would be eternally in your debt if you could send me an Email with a few hints about how you did the seemingly impossible. I am a long-time Microsoft user looking to gain some independence so I am strictly a neophyte with Linux and its various distributions.

My Email address is:
gadm@localnet.com

1000 Thanks !!
