SANE and FreeBSD
----------------
Building:
---------
Don't forget to use GNU make (gmake). E.g. "MAKE=gmake ./configure".
SANE should compile and install out-of-the-box.
SCSI-scanners:
--------------
If the SCSI host adapter is supported, there are no known problems.
USB-scanners:
-------------
USB-Scanners are supported by FreeBSD. The USB scanner driver "uscanner" and
access over libusb can be used.
To get your scanner detected by the uscanner driver, it may be necessary to
add its vendor and device ids to the kernel and recompile. Use MAKEDEV to
generate the /dev/uscanner* files if they are not already there. Use
sane-find-scanner to find your scanner and edit your backend's configuration
file appropriately.
If you want to use libusb, your scanner should *not* be claimed by the
uscanner driver. Make sure, that /dev/ugen* and /dev/usb* devices are
available. Use /dev/MAKEDEV to create them, if necessary.
For some backends you must use libusb. The uscanner driver won't work because
automatic detection, control messages, or interrupt endpoints are needed.
Parport-scanners:
-----------------
I don't have much information about these. The Mustek 600 II N scanner seems to work, others may or may not work. Please contact me or the SANE mailing
list if you succeeded in using a parport scanner.
