Linux drivers are listed.  Not sure how you add these. Perhaps someone can advise OP.

SORRY _ Just seen that clicking linux draws a blank

My LIDE  210 is working ok on both 32 & 64 bit LL3.4 "out of the box" i.e no mods ,  so there might be hope.

http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/zest...sys.5.html - It takes me to a page with library named sane-genesys. It says on the page that this library is especially designed for USB based Flatbed Scanners. I couldn't find that library in the Synaptic Manager. sane-genesys is available to download at that page as a sane-genesys.5.gz file, but I don't know how to install a library with .5.gz extension...

Any help highly appreciated!
Thanks.
