Hi! I have a Primax Colorado USB 19200 scanner. man uscanner(4) says it is supported. On the sane website, it is in the "external modules" section, and the patch is from 2002, and includes patches to the linux kernel... <http://viceo.orcon.net.nz/>; Can I get it working? Kernel says: uscanner0: PRIMAX Colorado USB 19200, rev 1.00/1.01, addr 2 when connecting it. Correct. sane-find-scanner says: # No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that # you have loaded a SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter. found USB scanner (vendor=0x0461, product=0x0360) at /dev/uscanner0 # Your USB scanner was detected. It may or may not be supported by # SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage. # Not checking for parallel port scanners. # Most Scanners connected to the parallel port or other proprietary ports # can't be detected by this program. and scanimage -L says No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different, check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages). Note: when running sane-find-scanner as non-root, it does not find anything. I assume I need libusb for that? I use FreeBSD current, pretty recent.
