[Bug 1184165] Re: 03f0:1205 [Asus A7N266VM] Scanner does not work: Simple scan gives a device busy error
Christopher M. Penalver, I'm again away from home till early February,
so I do not have access to the home desktop coputer with Asus mother
board. If it helps Ubuntu developers I'm willing to do the bisect
project using the link you provided. Nevertheless, I would like to know
and understand the following:
(1) If the kernel configuration is the same for a kernel that scanner
works and for another kernel that the scanner does not work what is the
point of bisecting kernels? Please, explain.
(2) Apparently the kernel recognizes the scanner devices, but something
takes it over and causes it to report as being busy. Shouldn't we direct
our investigation towards that?
Note: before I left home I wiped out the hard drive again (you know, the
dd stuff) and installed 12.04 flawlessly. Everything works on the Asus
computer, and I do not have 13.04 installation anymore. But again, if it
helps I can create an install and do the bisect.
Also, I installed 12.04 on my Acer laptop, abandoned my W7 boot and use
only my Xubuntu on it, completely happy. I'm writing this on my Acer
laptop, from Xubuntu 12.04.

Title:
03f0:1205 [Asus A7N266VM] 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:
