Thanks very much - I have the 4p and the "throw-away" Symbios P'n'P card,<br>
and also run LInux 2.0.35.  I have pulled the Symbios card in favor of the<br>
Adaptech 'aha1502e' sold in the US for $50 by Office Depot (as the<br>
Iomega 'ZIP-zoom' scsi).  Just as a matter of pride, I would like to use<br>
the Symbios card.  If your package doesn't identify kernel configuration<br>
particulars (i.e., isapnp?) that would be helpful to know.<br>
<p>
Thanks again.<br>

<p>
   Hello,<br>
<p>
<p>
I would like to use my scanner (HP Scanjet) <br>
under my Linux (s.u.s.e distribution)<br>
machine (PII Intel 400 MHZ). <br>
<p>
I have dowloaded the sane and gtk software and libraries,<br>
and installed sucessfully the application. <br>
<p>
But, I have only at my disposal  one parallel port (NO SCSCI ...)<br>
and then, would like to know if SANE is able to talk with<br>
my scanner through it ???<br>
<p>
On the same machine, I have installed a Windows 95 partition,<br>
and can use my scanner through the parallel port without problem.<br>
Therefore, I was surprised to meet some problem under linux ...<br>
<p>
<p>
   Does anyone can help me ?<br>
<p>
    Thank you in advance !<br>
<p>
<p>
<p>
               E. Henon<br>
<p>
