-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----<br>

<p>
|
|
As I understand the supported devices list, the subject scanner is not<br>
|
|
supported by 'sane'. However, I have a couple of generic questions<br>
|
|
that I can't seem to get from the documentation which apparenly<br>
|
|
assumes a lot of knowledge on the part of the reader. For the purposes<br>
|
|
of these questions, if it matters, I am running RH 5.2 (kernel 2.0.38)<br>
|
|
i386.<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
1) It appears that 'sane' expects the Linux kernel to recognize the<br>
|
|
device, correct? If so then where and how are the device drivers<br>
|
|
added? Are the supported device drivers 'modprobe'd in (i.e. 'modprobe<br>
|
|
sane-xxxx') or is there some kernel option I missed that brings in<br>
|
|
drivers? Am I confusing the backend drivers with device drivers and if<br>
|
|
so where does one get the device drivers if not included in the 'sane'<br>
|
|
distribution?<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Assuming my first surmise is correct then perhaps the following is<br>
|
|
academic:<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
2) Where is the documentation for defining /dev/scanner? I assume<br>
|
|
there probably is a symbolic link to the real /dev but how is it<br>
|
|
created and how is it identified? There seems to be no documentation<br>
|
|
about creating or linking the scanner device to /dev/scanner? I saw a<br>
|
|
reference in the man pages to tools/find-scanner but that does not<br>
|
|
exist (I installed the RH RPM).<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
3) Since the ImageReader is TWAIN compliant is there not a generic<br>
|
|
TWAIN backend that should work with TWAIN compliant scanners? Or is<br>
|
|
TWAIN an insufficiently defined standard to actually allow a generic<br>
|
|
software solution?<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
4) The obvious: is anyone working on support for this scanner?<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Thanks in advance for your replies.<br>
