Hi Mum,

Nothing I can do at the moment for your scanner, but confirmation below that
the next version 'Gutsy Gibbon' fixes the scanner issue. It's due out in 4
months but we can probably upgrade in around 2 months (for the pre-release
version). It's available right now but it could be a bit ropey upgrading at
this point (it's not ready yet).

Love,

Robert
