 Perhaps someone has beaten you to it?

[sane-devel] Writinng a driver for canoscan 3000

2006-02-10 Thread Gerald Murray
Quoting Marbrier Sebastien sebastien.marbr...@laposte.net:

 About the matter about the controller I tried to open my other scanner but I
saw the design is made to destroy it if I try to remove the metal plate above

I was thinking that the metal plate is there to guard against rf interference.
If the removal/reinsertion of the metal plate is expected to destroy the 
use of the scanner, could you elaborate on what you are suggesting?
Or am I mistaken about what you appear to be suggesting?

regards,
Gerald
 
 the main board. I have to be careful about it .

Thanks for your fast reply. I tried installing the experimental cvs, but
still same problem. The scanner seems to start and then it locks. I
think there is another problem also. I have attached the new log.

   Hello,

   it seems you are still running th 1.0.17 version of the backend, not 
 the 
experimental one. You should have version 1.0-1 not :

[lexmark] SANE Lexmark backend version 1.0-0

   You can double check by doing 'scanimage -L', if a Dell A920 is listed, 
 you 
are running the experimental version.

   To test withtout installing, you can go to the sane-backends/backend 
directory where the backend is compiled, then do
export LD_PRELOAD=.libs/libsane-lexmark.so.1.0.17
so when running scanimage, xscanimage or xsane from the sane-backends/backend 
directory, you'll be using local version.

   Once everything works, you may install it.

Regards,   
Stef

  

Thanks for helping. I messed up the installation myself. The scanner 
works now! The colors are a bit strange. Do I have to change some 
sane-settings or is it because of the experimental stage?

Maarten
