Description of problem: Epson Perfection 1650 USB scanner. When a preview or scan is attempted in xsane, the scanner begins the operation. xsane then displays a 'Operation Cancelled' dialog. The console logs a "[epson2] e2_ext_read: cancel request received" error. Scanning from gscan2pdf gives the same error. After the error occurs, the scanner is unresponsive and needs to be reset. This scanner works fine on a F12 system with xsane. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 13 Beta How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. start xsane or gscan2pdf 2. start preview or scan 3. error
Which version of sane-backends do you use?
sane-backends-libs-1.0.21-1.fc13.x86_64 sane-backends-1.0.21-1.fc13.x86_64
Today's update of sane-backends-1.0.21-2.fc13.x86_64 sane-backends-libs-1.0.21-2.fc13.x86_64 did not fix the problem, it still fails in the same way.
Found a discussion here: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/19861 That suggests editing /etc/sane.d/dll.conf to comment out 'epson2' and uncomment 'epson'. That corrects the issue on my system, although it's hardly an intuitive fix.
The fix/workaround in the previous comment also worked for me.
This problem persists in Fedora 14 Beta with all yum updates. The fix/workaround (i.e. use epson instead of epson2) worked for me.
I also had this problem, with an Epson Perfection 610. The work-around posted by Brian Daniels worked on my system. I am running Fedora 14, Kernel 2.6.35.6-48.fc14.x86_64. My sane-backends are sane-backends-libs-1.0.21-3.fc14.x86_64 sane-backends-1.0.21-3.fc14.x86_64
A new upstream version with many bugfixes and enhancements has been released. Please check whether your issue persists with this updated package: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/sane-backends-1.0.22-1.fc13
Sorry about the delay in responding to this, I have moved to F14. The problem is still happening with sane-backends-1.0.22-1.fc14.x86_64. If I uncomment the epson2 driver, I get the : [epson2] e2_ext_read: cancel request received errors and the scanner locks up. Using the epson driver works fine.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 13 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 13. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '13'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 13's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 13 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Updated version to reflect bug still being present in F14.
I cannot change the version here but can confirm the bug in F15 also.
Still seeing this with: sane-backends-drivers-scanners-1.0.22-10.fc16.x86_64 sane-backends-1.0.22-10.fc16.x86_64 sane-backends-libs-1.0.22-10.fc16.x86_64
