I installed it from the download file on an N800/OS2008. It appears in the extras menu but does nothing.
Then I tried running Autoscan_Network_Gui from a root shell, and learned that libdbus-1.so.2 was missing. After Googling around I found that it had been replaced with libdbus-1.so.3 which was in my /usr/lib/ so I created a symlink:
Now it complains about libhildonwidgets.so.0 That is a dead end - Google loops back to this thread, and the other references are for RPMs that do me no good at all.

I left a post on the Autoscan forum, maybe something will come of that.
