Hello !<br>
<p>
<i>&gt; I have a Mustek CG8000 hand held scanner I would like to use under Linux.</i><br>
<p>
<i>&gt; Does the Mustek driver work with hand helds? </i><br>
<p>
No. It is for SCSI and in the latest time for some "parallel" models (those <br>
that come with their own implementation of a "parallel" card).<br>
<p>
The CG8000 might be supported by the genric mustek handheld scanner driver<br>
which should be available from sunsite and such from the same directory<br>
in that you can find logiscan.<br>
<p>
Those drivers use a kernel module (necessary, the handhelds use proprietary <br>
IO cards and DMA/IRQ) and communicate with userspace using LHII (Linux<br>
Handscanner Ioctl Interface).<br>
<p>
<i>&gt; I would be willing to work on a driver if you do not mind helping me as </i><br>
<i>&gt; this would be my first device driver. I do have a strong C-C++ background </i><br>
<i>&gt; as well as OS.</i><br>
<p>
Good. Please test, if the LHII driver works. If this is the case, I'd <br>
really like to see someone tackling the LHII-to-SANE bridge finally.<br>
<p>
This should be rather easy, as I actually designed SANE based on LHII.<br>
In case the LHII driver works - would you like to tackle that ?<br>
I will surely help you, but writing the thing myself would be rather painful,<br>
because I do not have the Logitech handscanner I wrote the driver for anymore <br>
...<br>
<p>
CU, ANdy<br>
