There isn't a kernel module in this case since they are using sane.
I regularly build and install kernel modules without needing to reboot.
Maybe these notes were for Windows?  That is the only explanation I can
come up with to explain this.
Fortunately for me, I don't need this app since I already have a functional ocr solution .
in Linux.
My solution involves a few shell commands.  It seems much simpler than this app in any case.
