I plugged in a USB scanner tonight, and followed instructions I found
to get xsane working with it. It all works perfectly. I would like to
be able to scan from within GIMP, but the Acquire menu does not show a
scanner option. So I tried USE="scanner" emerge gimp to re-install it
with scanner support, but I still don't have the scanner option. Did I
need to do the emerge differently than I did when I re-installed, or is
something else wrong? Thanks!
