I only created that file during this investigation, following a suggestion |
| 14 |
by Barry. |

Hmm. Perhaps I should try another distribution to see how that goes. |

Meanwhile: |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
$ ls /etc/udev/rules.d |
| 23 |
05-udev-early.rules 60-vmware.rules |
| 24 |
75-persistent-net-generator.rules 99-libsane.rules |
| 25 |
50-udev.rules 70-persistent-cd.rules 92-scanner.rules |
| 26 |
60-persistent-input.rules 70-persistent-net.rules 95-net.rules |
| 27 |
60-persistent-storage.rules 75-cd-aliases-generator.rules |
| 28 |
99-libgphoto2.rules |

Barry, maybe I should look for a more amenable scanner? This one was only a |
| 33 |
basic one for my mother a few years ago (she's now 85 and on her second |
| 34 |
computer!). I've tried finding suggestions as to a suitable device, but not |
| 35 |
got anywhere yet. I'll try the local LUG next, I think. |
