Guest bobinpanama Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 how do I install a hp scanjet 3970 scanner? I have tried manual install. I have tried the soundforge files. Sane is installed but will not execute in a terminal. [root@localhost tmp]# sane bash: sane: command not found [root@localhost tmp]# ratliff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaraeez Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 (edited) once your scanner is connected (usb?) as root type sane-find-scanner & take it from there... hth oh this might help http://club.mandriva.com/xwiki/bin/view/KB/HardwareHscan Edited March 28, 2007 by jaraeez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bobinpanama Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 The system show sane installed, but I can't run scane from the terminal. It says program not found. ratliff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaraeez Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 (edited) have you run this command sane-find-scanner as root? as a matter of interest have you tried the front end - as root run mcc then from there Hardware > setup scanner this will then prompt you to install sane & any extra bits (just make sure that your repositories are set up - easyurpmi ) Edited March 28, 2007 by jaraeez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
