[Bug 1184165] Re: 03f0:1205 Scanner does not work: Simple scan gives a device busy error
Christopher M. Penalver, problem!
I clicked on the link. It took me to a site to download images. I chose
the 13.10 Desktop Image, PC (Intel x86).
Created DVD from ISO image and rebooted to the DVD.
It did not give me a chance to test it as live DVD, so I went ahead and
chose "comtinue", but without checking "install 3rd party software" as
instructed by you.
Minor issue: explanations under choices were not readeable, just blank
squares in place of characters. Apparently the display driver could not
render the font.
Created new secondary partition but without separate /boot partition and
proceeded with installation.
Minor issue: I got confused by "Ubuntu One" (what is it, why email, what
register?), but went ahead as a good soldier.
Instalaltion proceeded, but got stuck at the end: "copying installation
logs..."
I finally gave up and pulled the plug.
When I rebooted grub was messed up, lost entry for my trusted old FC3
installation on the other hard disk. But I hope I can fix that.
Booted into 13.10, but to a completely unfamiliar desktop and an
extremely slow system. Finally I found the way to shut down the system
normally, without pulling the plug.
After that I rebooted into 13.04 whose grub entry was not lost. Now I
can write this report.
So we are still at STEP ONE.
Can you please help?
btw, what is PPA?

Title:
03f0:1205 Scanner does not work: Simple scan gives a device busy error
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
This is a virgin installation of 13.04.
Scanner is not found - reported by Simple scan. I tried Ask Ubuntu,
but got no answer.
I have a parallel installation of 12.xx on the same computer, and
scanner does work. So what is specific about 13.04?
I have also an old FC-3 installation and the scanner works, using sane
with xinetd. I notice that 13.04 does not use xinetd. So how is the
scanner accessed? Whatever it is, it works on 12.xx and does not on
13.04.
In terminal mode:
sane-find-scanner
found USB scanner (vendor=0x03f0 [Hewlett-Packard], product=0x1205 [hp scanjet scanner]) at libusb:002:002
