Hello All,<br>
<p>
I'd like to add that I also have the same problem; preview doesn't <br>
work for me. My scanner is HP Scanjet 5p, though. I use sane-0.57 and<br>
gtk <br>
rpm from redhat contribution packages. The gtk rpm contains<br>
<p>
libgdk.so.1.0.0<br>
libgtk.so.1.0.0<br>
libgimp.so.1.0.0<br>
libgimpui.so.1.0.0<br>
libglib.so.1.0.0<br>
<p>
I downloaded the gtk+970426-davidm.tar.gz but could not compile <br>
it. The file README and INSTALL are empty.<br>
<br>
I also cannot run the installed [x]scanimage programs. I have to <br>
run it from the sane-0.57/frontend/ directory. It seems to me that the <br>
programs in the sane-0.57/frontend/ directory are the wrappers of the <br>
programs hidden in sane-0.57/frontend/.libs. Somehow the installation <br>
copied those files to /usr/local/bin/ but did not copy the wrappers. <br>
<p>
To run xscanimage, I need to type in the sane-0.57/frontend/<br>
./xscanimage hp<br>
Without the argument hp it will popup device selection window with<br>
options pnm:0 and pnm:1. Both do not work with my scanner.<br>
<p>
Also, with scanimage I cannot use geometry options ( -t -l -x -y). <br>
For example, with the command<br>
./scanimage -d hp -x 200 -y 200 --mode Color --resolution 100 &gt;<br>
out.pnm<br>
I got the following error<br>
scanimage: setting of option --br-x failed (Invalid argument)<br>
Or <br>
./scanimage -d hp -t 0 -l 0 --mode Color --resolution 100 &gt; out.pnm<br>
gives<br>
scanimage: setting of option --tl-y failed (Invalid argument)<br>
<p>
This is very similar error to what I got when trying to scan preview<br>
in the xscanimage. <br>
<p>
Error: Failed restore value of option tl-x: Invalid argument.<br>
Error: Failed restore value of option tl-y: Invalid argument.<br>
<p>
I wonder if there is connection between the two. <br>
Another thing, the default resolution is set to 18 dpi. Why is it so<br>
coarse? Is there a way to set the the to something finer? <br>
<br>
Lastly, I'd like to thank all the developers of SANE. Keep up the good<br>
work.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Worawut W.<br>
