Comment 33 for bug 550856

Benny sent a log after this problem occurred for him (thanks Benny!). His scanner didn't provide the page-width and page-height options so simple-scan was unable to set the page size.

I have a candidate fix in lp:~robert-ancell/simple-scan/scan-size.

If you are capable please try building from this branch and see if it fixes the problem. The following instructions will allow you to do this on an Ubuntu system:

$ bzr branch lp:~robert-ancell/simple-scan/scan-size simple-scan-fix
$ cd simple-scan-fix
$ sudo apt-get build-dep simple-scan
$ ./autogen.sh --prefix=$PWD/install
$ make
$ ./src/simple-scan
