Fw: scanning question
Given some of the content (expressions of gratitude to another
responder), I believe Bogdan meant to send this to the list.
Glad we could help, Bogdan.

Hello again,
Brad, your first advice was the exact solution to the problem. My user
hadn't been included in the "scanner" group by default. I manually did
that and now both Kooka and Xsane do the trick! Thank you!
Robert, thanks for your time! I haven't really used Xsane before, only
Kooka, but I'll give it a try now that you indicated it to me.
Best regards,
