What about sysrescue USB stick? Just plug the scanner in and and see if |
| 19 |
it shows up on the lsusb list? That should work even if I can't scan right? |

I have a old backup computer but it is like three years out of date and |
| 22 |
it was never set up to have a scanner attached. I'm thinking it would |
| 23 |
be fairly useless without a serious update which would not be fun. |

I have a thought. I could take it to my brothers and see if it shows up |
| 26 |
there. He runs Kubuntu but if lsusb lists it, it is a start. Right? |
