I've connected my Epson Perfection V370 scanner to my server and I'm trying to use Xsane on my laptop with it. Xsane finds the scanner but has an "Error during device I/O" message. I get essentially the same error with Epson Scan 2. Simple Scan just says "Unable to connect to scanner." Both the server and the laptop are running Impish and I was able to scan with the scanner connected directly to the laptop's USB ports. Can anyone shed some light on the subject?

I've installed the GNOME Dash to Panel extension on my fresh install of Ubuntu 21.10, but when I try to open the Settings of the extension it shows briefly in the panel then fades away before the Settings window appears. Has anyone else seen this behavior and, perhaps more importantly, found a fix? I get the same result if I right-click on the panel and select "Dash to Panel Settings" as when I click on the Configure button in Installed Extensions.
I'm trying to build an email server based on Ubuntu, and I want to run SpamAssassin on it. I've followed the instructions, installed it from the repositories, and when I try to start SpamAssassin I get an error message like the following:
Job for spamassassin.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status spamassassin.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
Running sudo systemctl status spamassassin.service
gets me the following:
Feb 02 01:43:46 grace systemd[1]: spamassassin.service: Service RestartSec=100ms expired, scheduling restart.
Feb 02 01:43:46 grace systemd[1]: spamassassin.service: Scheduled restart job, restart counter is at 5.
Feb 02 01:43:46 grace systemd[1]: Stopped Perl-based spam filter using text analysis.
Feb 02 01:43:46 grace systemd[1]: spamassassin.service: Start request repeated too quickly.
Feb 02 01:43:46 grace systemd[1]: spamassassin.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
Feb 02 01:43:46 grace systemd[1]: Failed to start Perl-based spam filter using text analysis.
I've tried stopping the service and starting it as well as simply restarting it, but it doesn't make a difference. I can't figure out what's going on.
I'm running an Ubuntu 18.10 server running Nginx as installed from the Ubuntu repository. When I try to reach the web server, though, I get a 403 error from Nginx. I'm sure there's a simple fix, but I'm too green to know it. Can anyone help?
My wife told me her Panel was wonky this evening. Turns out her System Tray was pushed to the left, next to the Application Launcher. I was finally able to move it back to the right, but now the application icons have no descriptions in the Panel. I'm sure there's a simple setting I'm missing, but for the life of me I can't find it.
I used to use my Epson scanner, back when I was running Ubuntu 17.04. Since I upgraded to 17.10, though, XSane and Simple Scan just can't find it. It shows up on lsusb, and I've downloaded and installed Epson's drivers, but it's just not working. I know the scanner and usb cable are good; it works fine with my MacBook Air. Can anyone help?
