    I've got a USB scanner hooked up to my SuSE 9.2 box. When I first was
    installing SuSE I had a problem where it YaST sees the scanner, but Kooka
    can't see it. I got help from the list regarding protections that solved the
    problem. Now, I normally keep the scanner off unless I'm going to use it.
    Today I fired it up and I'm back where I was at the beginning. I get no
    errors, and YaST says the scanner is connected, but Kooka can't see it.

    What file (or device) needed its ownership (or protections) changed so that
    all users can use the scanner? Am I causing a problem by shutting the
    scanner off when not in use?

    This also brings up another question. I went to the archives to look for the
    original email and all I could find was a site with emails separated by
    month. There seemed to be no search tool. Is there a way to search the
    archives other than by popping into each month and doing a text search? If
    that's the only way I could understand why folks don't spend more time
    looking in the archives first.

    Sorry for rehashing an old topic.
