what:
A patch to add the name of the hp5300 into the Avision-backend.
It changes the line 542 in the avision-backend from:
if (strcmp (&mfg, "AVISION ") != 0) {
to:
if (strcmp (&mfg, "AVISION ") != 0 || strcmp( &mfg, "HP " ) != 0)
called & where:
no idea where the current patch can be found.

A kernel-driver which emulates a SCSI scanner for the HP5300 scanner:
It can be found in the Alan Cox Kernel series and is called: hp5300.o
(It doesn't work for the most people and Oliver <Oliver.Neukum@lrz.uni-muenchen.de>
is working on a new driver:

The Linux kernel series, maintained by Alan Cox:

Who talked about examples?? ;-) (It doesn't work ...)

You should wait for the new hp5300->SCSI module or get a new scanner :-(.
