Hi
This was a post on the LTSP list from Peter Eherberg 29/09/04.
I have set up an Epson 1260 today on 4.1.1 which works perfectly 
scanning with xsane into the GIMP.

I'm glad to announce the add on package ltsp_sane-1.0.4.

The ltsp_sane package here is a add on package for a LTSP X-Terminal
to let a application running on your server access a scanner plugged
to your X-Terminal. This package based on the Scanner Access Now Easy
project (SANE, www.sane-project.org).

The original author of this package is Robert Stanford. All my thanks
is going to Robert. My only work consists in make Roberts package work
with LTSP version 4.1. Any praise is going to Robert any blame to me.
