Gimp 2 doesn't see my xsane scanner anymore!

Hi

I have installed Gimp 2 onto my FC1 system along side a 1.2 & 1.3. The I have a USB HP OfficeJet 6110 that has a built in scanner. This scanner is found and recognised by version 1.2, but not by version 1.3 or Gimp 2.

Question: How do I get Gimp 2 to see it?

You have to use the latest version of xsane. 0.94 is the latest one.

OK ! i have downloaded, compiled & installed 0.94. It will run stand alone, but not as a plugin.
xsane-gimp doesn't exist anymore, not even in /usr/local/bin the ? new?
default dir.

If you have xsane installed in /usr prefix you shoud have a /usr/bin/ xsane executable for it ("which xsane" will tell you where it is located).

Go to your .gimp-2.0/plug-ins directory (in your home directory) and add a symlink to the xsane binary :
cd .gnome(2.0/plug-ins
ln s /usr/bin/xsane

This will give the following symlink: xsane -> /usr/bin/xsane

For a general usage on your machine you can make the symlink in /usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins
