I am having two problems with my system -
1. I can't open some sites like drupal.org ; etc.
I am using OpenDNS. Opening the site through a proxy works. But on my system, even lynx doesn't open it. Just keeps loading......loading.....
How to solve this ?
2. My scanner is available to root only
I have a USB printer cum scanner.
I can print with my user account but only root account is able to scan.
Even when I run the sane-find-scanner with my user account, it doesn't detect my scanner ; but it works with root account.
some output -

# result is different from what you expected, first make sure your

No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different,
check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the
sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation
which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages).
