Hallo Yuri!<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
I nohup'ed a GNU wget process on a Unix box at my university during this night,<br>
|
||
and now I finally have your sane 0.74 distribution archive. I see that you<br>
|
||
included a difference file containing all your changes on the source code.<br>
|
||
Thank you very much!<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
As for the good news, I managed to address my scanner using your build. As for<br>
|
||
the bad news, there were several problems.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Here is all information I think could be valuable:<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
1) Config.Sys:<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
BASEDEV=AHA152X.ADD /V<br>
|
||
BASEDEV=OS2SCSI.DMD<br>
|
||
BASEDEV=OS2ASPI.DMD<br>
|
||
DEVICE=E:\LOCAL\IMPOS21\CPASPI.SYS<br>
|
||
device=d:\os2\boot\aspirout.sys<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
CPASPI.SYS is the Impos/2 driver, to this date my only possibility to<br>
|
||
scan on OS/2 - but I don't think it should interfere with aspirout.sys.<br>
|
||
At least, both load without any complaint.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
The aspirout.sys in \os2\boot is still the one that was shipped with 0.72.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
2) I unzipped sane074b1.zip to e:\home\x<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
3) I changed to e:\home\x\bin and started find_scanner. Here comes the first<br>
|
||
queer result:<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
find-scanner: found scanner " Scanner 600A4 2.21" at device b0t0l0<br>
|
||
find-scanner: found scanner " Scanner 600A4 2.21" at device b0t1l0<br>
|
||
[and so on, until:]<br>
|
||
find-scanner: found scanner " Scanner 600A4 2.21" at device b3t7l0<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
The scanner identification string is correct (Sane on FreeBSD reports <br>
|
||
the same one), but I really don't have 32 scanners attached to this <br>
|
||
system ;-).<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
As the scanner is attached to the first (only) SCSI controller at SCSI <br>
|
||
ID 4, I then edited e:\home\x\conf to only contain a single line:<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
b0t4l0<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
4) I then did<br>
|
||
SET SANE_CONFIG_DIR=e:/home/x/conf<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
5) I changed to e:\home\x\bin and tried scanimage --help. Result:<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
[...]<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
List of available devices:<br>
|
||
pnm:0 pnm:1 microtek2:b0t4l0<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Process terminated by SIGSEGV<br>
|
||
core dumped<br>
|
||
SYS1808:<br>
|
||
Der Proze<7A> wurde gestoppt. Der Softwarediagnosecode<br>
|
||
(Fehlercode der Ausnahmebedingung) ist 0005.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
If you did keep a debugging version of this build, I can send you the <br>
|
||
core file if you wish.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
"scanimage -d microtek2:b0t4l0 --help" did work, however.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
6) I then scanned my first image on the command line. The scan speed was <br>
|
||
roughly equal to that of ImpOS/2. However, just like with ImpOS/2, my <br>
|
||
computer is hardly usable during the scan progress. It is not completely <br>
|
||
blocked (i.E. I can switch through windows every two seconds or so), but <br>
|
||
it is even unusable for tasks as simple as entering a text.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Is this normal behaviour? Or is it related to a driver problem of my<br>
|
||
machine? If it is normal, do you think it could be changed? I suspect<br>
|
||
that the problem is somewhere in the ASPI driver layer - perhaps one<br>
|
||
would have to write a multithreaded aspirout.sys in order to circumvent<br>
|
||
this problem ... ?<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
7) As for the Sane/2 frontend: <br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
* Please make it possible to enter numbers into the dialog fields<br>
|
||
like resolution etc. Pressing and holding the PgUp-Button until the<br>
|
||
field has scrolled to the desired number is very boring.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
* The frontend seems to start up on a hard-coded position. This is<br>
|
||
a) bad behaviour in general, and b) the hard-coded position is such<br>
|
||
that the title bar is ouside the physical screen on my 800x600 display<br>
|
||
...<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
* Most of the input boxes (like Halftoning) are not wide enough to<br>
|
||
display the text that is in them. Please give them some more space.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
* When scanning with the frontend in 24 bit mode, the colors are wrong.<br>
|
||
This is not so when scanning with the command line.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
* The frontend complains about the --resolution failing with "invalid<br>
|
||
argument", no matter what resolution I enter. (All these resolutions<br>
|
||
work on the command line).<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
But again thanks for your work, and take this as positive critic! I surely want<br>
|
||
to help you making Sane the best scan interface for OS/2. :-).<br>

||
