AFAIK This was fixed in SANE 1.0.1, wasn't it? Anyone?<br>
<p>
If you are running SANE 1.0.0 then you need to upgrade anyway, because<br>
SANE 1.0.0 has too many known bugs not to be scared of it.<br>
<p>
Since you only have one removed device, you can avoid shuffling by<br>
re-ordering the SCSI IDs on the two devices. IIRC Just making the<br>
scanner say, ID 3 and the CD-burner ID 5 will be enough to make the<br>
scanner stay on /dev/sga all the time.<br>
<p>
Finally, there is a LIST in that configuration file, so just LIST all<br>
the devices which might be a scanner. It will surely reject any that<br>
don't appear to be HP PROCESSOR class devices.<br>
