Hi all,
<BR>
<P>Here's an update on the issues I found with Saned, snapscan on Sparc
<BR>
Solaris 7:
<BR>
<P>I moved the Acer 610ST scanner to an Ultrasparc 10 system, and found the
<BR>
same problems as on the Sparc 4, with the scan clients crashing on
<BR>
preview. So, I swapped the scanner for a Microtek 6USL, and now it
<BR>
works!!
<BR>
<P>Clearly the problem was with the snapscan backend, although it works
<BR>
perfectly on a Linux box, but not Solaris. Now there are only a few
<BR>
issues remaining:
<BR>
<P>1) It seems the microtek2 backend won't wake up the scanner when it had
<BR>
shut off the scanner light source. It scans a black image, (because
<BR>
there's no light source), unless you first turn off and on the scanner
<BR>
so it initializes, and the light comes on.
<BR>
<P>2) The Xsane-0.71-Win32 client works well (thanks Oliver!), except, not
<BR>
on an Athlon box running Win2000. It works fine on Pentium (I, II, III)
<BR>
machines running Win95, Win98 and Win2000, but crashes on the Athlon.
<BR>
Seems like a compiler bug to me.
<BR>
<P>3) Another microtek2, xscanimage issue: in xscanimage, an option
<BR>
appears to scan in 8bpp or 12bpp. The 8bpp works fine, but the 12bpp
<BR>
setting doesn't scan properly, and produces weird results. (I know, who
<BR>
needs 12 bpp anyway, but actually it might be useful for me, because I
<BR>
sometimes digitize aerial photography film, where the higher bit depth
<BR>
can actually mean something.) Any suggestions?
<BR>
