<i>&gt; I don't believe SANE supports this yet; last I heard David Rose was</i><br>

<i>&gt; deliver?</i><br>
<p>
Hello! No word from Minolta yet, but don't hold your breath.<br>
<p>
<i>&gt; Since I don't have any Micro$oft OSs on this box, only Linux/Intel,</i><br>
<i>&gt; another alternative would be to try the Minolta software under WINE.</i><br>
<i>&gt; Does this sound feasible? I've never used WINE at all. It sounds</i><br>
<i>&gt; like some SANErs are using WINE to reverse-engineer the scanner</i><br>
<i>&gt; protocols so that suggests it might be good enough.</i><br>
<p>
I haven't yet had the nerve to try to run my QuickScan 35 driver under<br>
WINE. I suspect the hard part would be getting a WINE application to<br>
talk to the SCSI card; perhaps somone else on the list can speak about<br>
the probability of this working right off the bat.<br>
