[Bug 1184165] Re: 03f0:1205 Scanner does not work: Simple scan gives a device busy error

 

Christopher, ok. I start to see the logic. However, I fail to understand
why kernel 3.2 works on Xubuntu, but 3.8.0-19 does not, even though
3.8.0-29 works again in Ubuntu. Apparently something went bad going from
3.2.0-52 to 3.8.0-19 in Xubuntu, but going from 3.8.0-19 to 3.8.0-29
things became good again (I mean scanner recognition in Xubuntu).

So before I bisect anything would you agree that I should first install
3.8.0-29 on my Xubuntu, and test the scanner. If it works then we can
decide if we need to bisect 3.8.0-19 and -29 if we really want to find
out what is the offending code.

Let me know.

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:
