# scanimage -L

No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different,
check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the
sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation
which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages).

# usbdevs -v
Controller /dev/usb0:
addr 1: full speed, self powered, config 1, UHCI root hub(0x0000), Intel(0x0000), rev 1.00
  port 1 powered
  port 2 powered
#

And again, I'm in a state where I have no idea in what direction to go!


What do you have configured in your kernel config file, to get this usb stuff working?

Thanks for your help!
