Canon Lide 100 not working

[sanmayjoshi]

Thanks a lot [member=411]bitsnpcs[/member]  .

Hello sanmayjoshi,

on the first link there are some solutions others used for this, via links in their replies, it may be worth checking them in case it can solve it .

I checked the first link you provided but no luck...

The second link is for another scanner, the method was used to solve an USB issue on the Canon Lide 100. As you wrote you are using the scanner by USB it is worth looking at this to confirm there is not a USB issue, that prevents your scanner working etc.

I went through the second link too, but I am using ASUS Eee PC, and I'm pretty sure it doesn't have a USB 3.0 connection. Sorry, but that link couldn't solve it...

.gz (tar, tar ball) it is like a zip file.
Right click the downloaded file and from the menu that will appear select "extract here" .
Once extracted you will see the files, and files types, if you are unsure how to install them, then members may know how to install them once the files can be specified.

That file (sane-genesysy.5.gz) had sane-genesys.5 file in it. I opened it with text editor(BlueFish) and found out that it had the same information that the website had. It doesn't seem like it's a library(don't know though). There is no info(even on the website- http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/zest...sys.5.html ) where that library is or how to use it...
Link to the sane-genesys.5.gz file : http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages.gz/z...nesys.5.gz

Any help...?
