I'm sorry that in my previews postings I had to ask some questions
that had little to do with SANE, but now I've come to a real SANE problem.
I'll state the whole situation from the begining:
- I've got SE6000SP and using it's SCSI interface DTC3181E
- I've patched the 2.0.36 sources with ``mustek-scsi-patch-0.6''
- I've changed /usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi/Makefile as the patch
advised to (adding BOARD_DTC... etc.)
- Compiled the kernel with modular support for SCSI and Generic
NCR5380 and with option [YES] for Generic Scsi Support.
- Rebooted and loaded the modules scsi_mod an g_NCR5380 (the second
with ncr_addr=0x240 dtc_3181e=1) and got this message:
--- scsi0 : interrupts not enabled. for better interactive performance, scsi0 : please jumper the board for a free IRQ. scsi0 : at port 0x240 interrupts disabled options CAN_QUEUE=16 CMD_PER_LUN=2 release=1 generic opti ons AUTOPROBE_IRQ AUTOSENSE USLEEP, USLEEP_POLL=1 USLEEP_SLEEP=20 generic release=7 scsi0 : Generic NCR5380/53C400 Driver scsi : 1 host. Vendor: SCANNER Model: Rev: 1.00 Type: Scanner ANSI SCSI revision: 01 CCS--- ...which worried me because it seems like no scanner was found, or the scanner that was found did not have any strings!- Ran ``find-scanner /dev/sg?'' and ``find-scanner'' from SANE with no output! - Symlinked /dev/sga to /dev/scanner and reran find-scanner with this output:
--- Detected scsi generic sga at scsi0, channel 0, id 6, lun 0 find-scanner: found scanner "SCANNER 1.00" at device /dev/scanner find-scanner: found scanner "SCANNER 1.00" at device /dev/sga--- ...which surprised me, because find-scanner was supposed to locate a scanner in /dev/sga without having to use a /dev/scanner symlink!!!- Ran ``scanimage -d mustek:/dev/scanner > o.pnm''. The result was that the scanner light would go some centimeters (2-4) forward and then start making some noise like it was stuck somewhere (difficulty to move). The scanner light returned to its position and the o.pnm was not more that 40Kb. Note that neither with -t -l -x -y options scanimage had a result different than the above and that the scanner works fine under M$w95. I also changed /usr/local/etc/sane.d/mustek.conf so that /dev/scanner with no options was the first device. Nothing!
