SANE and Darwin (Mac OS X)
--------------------------
Building:
---------
You may get the message: "gcc: Internal compiler error: program cc1obj got
fatal signal 11". That's not a bug in SANE. Probably a compiler or hardware
problem. The error usually occurs in canon.c because that's the most complex
backend (at least concerning compilation). If you can't update your compiler,
try to reduce optimization (e.g. CFLAGS="-O1" ./configure). Another
work-around: Disable the canon backend in backend/Makefile.in (look at
PRELOADABLE_BACKENDS) and rerun configure.
SCSI-scanners:
--------------
Probably not supported because there are no functions in sanei_scsi to access
the Darwin generic SCSI devices. Patches are welcome.
USB-scanners:
-------------
Untested. May work if libusb is used. Try "sane-find-scanner -v -v" and report
success or failure to the SANE mailing list.
Parport-scanners:
-----------------
I don't have any information about these. Please contact me or the SANE mailing
list if you succeeded in using one of these.
