Red Hat 6.2, Kernel 2.2.14
I have tried several ways to use SANE to scan with the Nikon LS2000,
and none of them have worked. I'm looking for some advice as to where
to go next. I have never tried this scanner with a windows machine.
I tried to FTP the sane backend for the coolscan at
http://www.sema.be/coolscan/ but there doesn't appear to be any FTP
access.
I tried the modified backend at
http://andreas.rick.free.fr/sane/coolscan.html and was actually able
to download sane-1.0.2_coolscan043.tgz. This compiled fine, but the
preview and scan buttons don't seem to do anything. I tried loading
the film both before and after hitting the buttons.
I tried vuescan at http://www.hamrick.com/vsm.html, and VueScan 5.9t53
for Linux. This appears to be more functional than SANE: at least the
abort and film eject buttons work fine. I was actually able to get a
sort of image from the scan, but it took a really long time, and it
did not look very clean. I was not able to save the image or control
which image on the negative to scan. This may be because of the trial
(unregistered) status of the software.
Does anybody out there have an LS2000 working with SANE?
