What must I do to continue installing the scanner? 12.04 appears to deal with USB in another way. Which returned chmod: cannot access `/proc/bus/usb/001/003': No such file or directory The avasys image scan manual instructed me to run chmod 0666 /proc/bus/usb/001/003 I then ran lsusb and got back: Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hubīus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hubīus 001 Device 003: ID 04b8:012d Seiko Epson Corp. I then ran sane-find-scanner and got back: found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8, product=0x012d) at libusb:001:003
