Hi,
please be more specific, what sane-backends are you using?
Please download the latest snapshot from sane-project.org
Then when using the parport device, make sure you are allowed
to access it.
To build a kernel-module for kernel 2.6.x, you will need the
sane-backend sources, then go to the directory doc/plustek
and call MakeModule.sh (as root user), this script should do
the rest - but I recommend to use the user-mode backend.
When doing the next tests, please provide the debug output
of the backend:
export SANE_DEBUG_PLUSTEK_PP=20 ; scanimage -L
Ciao,
Gerhard
