<P>
The information I have says that you will need to get developer
<BR>
documeentation for the 1394 chipset inside whatever scanner you are trying
<BR>
to port.
<BR>
<P>There are very few manufacturers of 1394 chipsets so, this should not be too
<BR>
difficult.
<BR>
<P>Please let me know if my information is not correct.

<EM>&gt; &gt; &gt; Couldn't find anything in the archives ot the FAQ, so here goes:
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; &gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; &gt; Has anybody been looking at support for the FireWire (a.k.a. i.Link,
</EM><BR>
a.k.a. i1394) bus, now that it is supported (-ish) in the 2.4 Linux kernel?
<BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; &gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; &gt; There are a copule of neat scanners with this interface that I'd like
</EM><BR>
to use.
<BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; Allan,
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; If the scanners use the SBP-2 protocol (i.e. scsi command
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; set) over 1394 then there is a driver in beta test written
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; by James Goodwin at:
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; <A HREF="http://firewire.zawa.com/sbp2/">http://firewire.zawa.com/sbp2/</A>
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; He mentions that it has been tested on a Epson 1394 scanner.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Not quite correct: First of all it was an EPSON Expression 1600
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; scanner and James has no first hand experience with this scanner -
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; I have one here running with the IEEE1394 interface, and it was
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; me who fixed the SBP-2 driver to allow for the EPSON scanner to
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; work. EPSON is not doing anything special, so I would guess that
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; ever other scanner with an IEEE-1394 interface would also work
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; as long as SANE supports the SCSI version of the scanner.
</EM><BR>
<P>Interesting. Some people have complained their SCSI and USB scanners are
<BR>
slow when using SANE. How fast does your Epson scan, with what should be
<BR>
a pretty high performance interface? (SCSI should be fast, its true, but
<BR>
the crummy SCSI interfaces on most scanner aren't really capable of high
<BR>
throughput).
<BR>
<P>Regards,
<BR>
Steve
