Congratulations, SANE is now installed. If you built it with GIMP and GTK packages/ports installed, you can use SANE as a GIMP plug-in. To do this, as root, type: ln -sf /usr/local/bin/xscanimage /usr/X11R6/libexec/gimp/1.1/plug-ins/xscanimage Then run the GIMP, and a new "Acquire" menu item should appear in the "Xtras" menu. Use this to access your scanner. Have fun!
