Bug Description

Binary package hint: gimp

Step 1: In Gimp, click File > Acquire > Xsane > Device dialog.
In the device selection window, select your scanner and click OK (for me: Canon LiDE 60)

Result: Xsane window appears and preview window briefly shows and then disappears again

Step 2: In the Xsane window, click Window > Preview

Result: The Preview window shows up again, *but it's completely grey and you can't see the menu's, rulers, etc...*

Workaround:

Step 3: Now: close the xsane window *without closing the preview window first*

Step 4: repeat step 1

Result: Xsane window appears, and preview window as well, just like in the result for Step 1, but now the preview window does not suddenly disappear anymore, and is fully functional

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Thanks in advance.
