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. Try
sane-find-scanner to find out the correct device and edit the backend's
configuration file appropriately or set a link /dev/scanner to the device
file. Auto-configuration using the "scsi *" lines in the config files
doesn't work.
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.
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.
