I have a Epson Stylus CX1500 All-In-One which i use primarlily for scanning. When I try to use Kooka, it stops half way when i try to get a preview. The same happens when I use XSane Scan.
Kooka says the unit is this:
EPSON EPSON MFP00
XSane Scan says it's this:
ESPON MFP00:004
when I did lsusb this is the info:
# lsusb
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 002 Device 005: ID 04b8:080c Seiko Epson Corp. ME100
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 2770:905c NHJ, Ltd Che-Ez Snap SNAP-U/Digigr8/Soundstar TDC-35
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
I have 1.5 GHZ comp with 256 megs of mem.
Anyone have a answer? |

Your Scanner seems to use the wrong backend (epkowa). It should use sane-snapscan instead: http://www.sane-project.org/cgi-bin/dri ... amp;p=080c
Unplug the Scanner, then deactivate other backends in /etc/sane.d/dll.conf by putting a # in front of them, and leave just snapscan active. Additionally deactivate epkowa in /etc/sane.d/dll.d/libsane-extras. Now plug in again and start Kooka.
Greetings,

There should be enough memory as your (huge) swap is working.
Did you try to start kooka or xsane from a terminal or a console to ge some information from he running program? Do you find anything in the kdm.log or Xorg.log in /var/log/ ?
cheers Micha
These are only basic searches for errors, i do not know anything about Canon, sorry. |

About the swap size. I always set the swap size to the slightly above the potential memory that can be installed on the computer. This computer can have 2 gigs of mem.  |

Something is wrong here. Please post the output of infobash -v3 and your /etc/fstab here.
