Based on the Luigi's link included in an almost year old email to =20
these lists, I purchased an Epson CX5600 with all intentions of using =20
the scanner but never seemed to get around to configuring it. Many =20
things have happened since then including new USB, etc. etc. The =20
printer still works fine using cups. I have just tried to configure =20
the scanner without luck. A device isn't created in /dev and only the =20
printer is recognized on boot:
Nov 11 17:24:51 ed kernel: uhub0: 5 ports with 5 removable, self powered
Nov 11 17:24:51 ed kernel: uhub2: 5 ports with 5 removable, self powered
Nov 11 17:24:51 ed kernel: GEOM: ad4s2: geometry does not match label =20
(255h,63s !=3D 16h,63s).
Nov 11 17:24:51 ed kernel: GEOM: ad4s3: geometry does not match label =20
(255h,63s !=3D 16h,63s).
Nov 11 17:24:51 ed kernel: uhub1: 5 ports with 5 removable, self powered
Nov 11 17:24:51 ed kernel: uhub3: 5 ports with 5 removable, self powered
Nov 11 17:24:51 ed kernel: ugen1.2: <SuYin> at usbus1
Nov 11 17:24:51 ed kernel: ugen2.2: <EPSON> at usbus2
Nov 11 17:24:51 ed kernel: ulpt0: <USB2.0 Printer> on usbus2
Nov 11 17:24:51 ed kernel: ulpt0: using bi-directional mode
I installed:
drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Nov 11 16:27 sane-backends-1.0.20_4
drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Nov 11 16:41 sane-frontends-1.0.14_5
drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Nov 11 16:47 xsane-0.996_1
added entries in usbdevs and devd.conf.
I don't really know where to go from here. I haven't configured a =20
scanner for freebsd in years and am totally lost. It isn't really =20
that important but it would certainly be handy.
I am running up to date Current:
FreeBSD ed.local.net.mx 9.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 9.0-CURRENT #360: Wed Nov =20
11 06:55:25 CST 2009 =20
root@ed.local.net.mx:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/ENCONTACTO i386
That could be part of the problem.
Thanks,
ed
P.S. Luigi thanks for the great tutoral. I'm pretty sure the problems
are from the changes made in current this year.

one option is to put the device IDs in uscanner.c and see if
it is recognised. But other than that, i wouldn't waste much time:
for 50..80 euro you can get one of the
Epson multifunction printer scanners (i have personally
tried DX4400 to DX7050) which are well supported and
extremely reliable.
