[gentoo-user] SANE

[James]

Hello,

I have these installed:
libksane : ksaneplugin : sane-backends
all stable versions.

I run KDE but could not find any apps under
the KDE menu to launch/use Sane. I assumed the
name would be K*sane* ???


I did see these packages in the sane man page:
xscanimage : xcam : scanadf 
"are  included  in  the  package `sane-frontends' "

Advise as to which (graphical) front end
to use with sane (including any relevant
info on flags) would be appreciated.

It's an stand-alone HP scanjet ADF with a 
usb port.

I have an Acquire Images item in my KDE menu, it calls /usr/bin/scangui
which is provided by media-plugins/kipi-plugins.

You might want to have a look at kde-misc/skanlite.
