The first one there is the Canon scanner but xsane will always choose the webcam over the scanner. Is there a way the unsupported hardware issue?
This my first time adding a peripheral to my ubuntu jaunty box. I want to add a CanoScan Lide 700F to Xsane and am coming up real short.
I have not added a driver as I assumed it would just work...

the problem is that any of the programs I use just don't work. They all stop at 4% and I'm left with a coaster! The cd's are good, it's just the cd won't be written to.

Just for those dummies who like the joke but didn't get that, what does it mean?
I'm fairly ubuntly challenged and so when I was installing ubuntu on a friends computer (conversion no.3) and it automatically updated into ibex I was prepared to reinstall from scratch. Having given...
Really sorry to be annoying about this but I don't really understand what they're saying. You couldn't give me a layman's piece of code I could copy & paste into terminal?
