Hello all,<br>
<p>
I've got a SANE build for Digital Unix and I've got an HP6100C SCSI<br>
scanner. I want to test SANE on Digital Unix because it doesn't look like<br>
anyone has done so since 0.97 where it was claimed that the user-level<br>
SCSI support needs debugging.<br>
<p>
I'm wondering now how I tell SANE where to find the scanner. My system has<br>
a /dev/cam device, and I see from sanei_scsi.c that for SCSI/CAM<br>
sanei_scsi_open expects a device string of the form "bNtNlN" where the N's<br>
are bus, target and lun, and opens /dev/cam. The trouble is that I can't<br>
see where I have to specify the bus/target/lun string. For example the<br>
sane-hp man page says:<br>
<p>
"This backend expects device names of the form:<br>
<p>
special<br>
<p>
Where special is the UNIX path-name for the special device<br>
that corresponds to the scanner. <br>
<p>
Is this just a bug in the man page, and should I be putting b0t2l0 or<br>
whatever in the hp.conf file?<br>
<p>
Also, can anyone tell me how buggy the user-level scsi interface is?<br>
I.e does it trash disks? What sort of bugs should I expect?<br>
<p>
Ian<br>
