(Get the code!)
Hi!
I'm actually also a bit fed up with regressions in Ubuntu, I don't know if
it's any worse than other distros, because I've mosly used just
Ubuntu/Kubuntu, but I fear that the tight release schedule might let a lot of
bugs slip through.
I think the scanner could work in Debian Etch. Or then ju just throw in Feisty
or Dapper and you'll be fine for sure. (But at least in Edgy you'll need to
hold down the mousebutton for about 5sec when clicking aquire preview or
scan.) I can actually also confirm that it worked under KDE in OpenSUSE 10.2
(probably works in GNOME too), but the default scanning tool in OpenSUSE/KDE
was a bit too simple for my taste, and gave me a rather bluish picture.
cheers, Simon
