In the meantime I have played around a little bit: I put vendor and product id's into /usr/src/sys/dev/usb/uscanner.c and usbdevs and rebuilt my kernel. So now I get # dmesg | grep uscanner uscanner0: <Canon CanoScan, class 255/255, rev 2.00/3.07, addr 2> on uhub1 which changes: # sane-find-scanner -q found USB scanner (vendor=0x04a9, product=0x1900) at /dev/uscanner0 Also I tried an appropriate entry in /usr/local/etc/sane/genesys.conf but the result of # scanimage -L remains the same (not identified) and # scanimage -d genesys:/dev/uscanner0 > image.pnm scanimage: open of device genesys:/dev/uscanner0 failed: Invalid argument Greetings, Uli. > > > > Thanks for your answers, comments, help, etc.. > > Greetings, > > Uli. > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to > "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
