Astra 3400 USB. Knoppix 5.1. Sane. All 3 of the front ends included with
this knoppix act the same. Using the plustek backend. The scanner has the
numbers which are supposed to be supported. It does recognize the scanner
and in fact scans. The light does not come on. Will get a scan of my
ceiling if I do not close the cover. Thought perhaps TPA was enabled (I do
not have a tpa). Can not find any indication of that. TPA is turned off
everywhere I am aware of. There is nothing wrong with the light, it works
fine under windows. Any help?

Knoppix 5.1, eh. Installed or booted from DVD?
: If installed, update sane; or if that scanner is really old, backdate
sane.
: If from DVD read the included modify instructions and build a variation
that will work with your scanner.
