As subscribers to the sane-os2 list already know, last weekend Yuri Dario
compiled what was then the latest snapshot, linked with his OS/2 adaptations.
Today I had time to test it with a Microtek E3, and also a much older Microtek
II-G. In a nutshell: the E3 still doesn't work, (but fails sooner). However,
the changes from backend 0.10.1 to 0.11.1 don't seem to have affected the II-G:
it still works.
Not since v0.51 has sane-os2 worked with the E3, at least not for me - see
several postings last July & August under the thread title
"Microtek E3 won't scan but II-G okay (SANE OS/2)".
With last summer's SANE-OS/2 (microtek backend 0.10.1), the E3 executes 2 or
3 short moves (pre-cal?), then one high-speed but very short move is followed
immediately by an "I/O Error". The II-G does not seem to have any such
problems, but it's gray-scale only, and other capabiliites are also more
limited.
With the new snapshot, the E3 no longer executes those preliminary moves -
Sane-OS/2 just reports an I/O error. I'm attaching a pair of log files created
by redirecting stdout to file; "10test.log" is a typical aborted run with last
summer's build, and "11test.log" uses the 0.11.1 microtek backend as included in
last weekend' developmental snapshot. Both tests were run with
sane_debug_sanei_scsi=128 and sane_debug_microtek = 128.
If anyone can suggest further tests, let me know....
Thanks,
Irv Thomae
