Make sure you've got USB working - you may need these (as root): # modprobe usb-storage # modprobe visor
bingo :-) - forgot to enable visor or usb printer support when I last configured kernel 2 weeks before the laptop started going flaky! will try recompile/reboot tomorrow night.
This should appear in dmesg, somewhere: visor.c: USB HandSpring Visor, Palm m50x, Treo, Sony Clié driver v1.7 Use dmesg | grep visor

Try installing a recent wine snapshot using apt and then install the FineReader program. http://www.sane-project.org/cgi-bin/driver.pl?manu=Epson&model=3170&bus=usb Your scanner does appear to be unsupported still. Sadly. Perhaps a new scanner is a better buy than a new / replacement box?
no point trying this if I can't scan, have a wild plan to try running the driver install program that came with the scanner under wine, but will leave this a week until I sort out other more important stuff (like two perl scripts that need tk804 to work) thanks for the suggestions so far Dave (who has been VERY impressed how well this Debian box has run. 4 weeks 24/7 uptime so far with no problems!) -- http://www.morgad.no-ip.info/index.html gpg:0x64B5E037 Distributed Proofreaders: http://www.pgdp.net -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG Mail majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxx with "unsubscribe list" in the message body to unsubscribe.
