[sane-devel] Identifying identical scanners dynamically turned on and off

Only when replugging to a *different* USB port will this location change. I'm not sure what happens when you reboot. Assuming that you know which scanner shows up where in /sys/, you can then use the busnum and devnum files to construct the device names that the epson2 backend groks. So with $ cat /sys/bus/usb/devices/usb2/2-4/busnum 2 $ cat /sys/bus/usb/devices/usb2/2-4/devnum 3 you'd use epson2:libusb:002:003` for the device name. When power cycling, on the `devnum` will change. Note that there is a libsysfs-dev package which may be useful here. Hope this helps, The path on my machine was similar but didn't have the files you specified but your guidance led to this command which gives me the proper addresses of all attached scanners: $ sane-find-scanner -v -v | sed -n -E 's/^found USB.*(libusb.*$)/\1/p' Thanks for the help, If that solves your problem then fine but IIRC the sane-find-scanner output will look like libusb:002:003 where the `003` will change every time you power-cycle the device. If all your scanners are on a different bus (the `002` part) then you are okay but if you have two or more on the same bus ... Let's say you have libusb:002:003 -- scanner A libusb:002:004 -- scanner B Now your application starts and power-cycles both devices. You will most likely get libusb:002:005 libusb:002:006 but you cannot tell anymore which one is A and which one is B. You may be able to work around this if the devices are power-cycled in a well defined order with sufficiently large delays between devices.

[sane-devel] sane-backends-1.0.22: Lide210 bumps into bottom
Le dimanche 25 mars 2012 22:55:00 Peter Hackenberg a ?crit : Hello, I tested the git (20120116) backend: The y-range improved. No bump at the end anymore. However, I get a black horizontal stripe at the top (scan starts too early) and something is missing at the left-hand side (scan starts too late). The following settings are optimal (for my scanner) with the git-version. I don't know how much tolerances Canon builds in. SANE_FIX (2.2), /* Start of scan area in mm (x) */ SANE_FIX (9.0), /* Start of scan area in mm (y) */ SANE_FIX (216.7), /* Size of scan area in mm (x) */ SANE_FIX (299.0), /* Size of scan area in mm (y) */ The 2400 dpi resolution shows a vertical shift with respect to the lower resolutions: About 1 mm shifted (starts too late, ends too late). My other two issues (scanner not returning to start and A4 as default size in preview pane) are unchangend. Best regards, Peter Hello, I have checked that my LiDE 110 is working alright. It should have the same geometry than the LiDE 210. Could you run a test with the attached script. Then send the files in the results/mmdd-hhmmss directory it creates ? I would like to compare with the data I have here. Thanks for your help, Stef -- next part -- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

[sane-devel] Mustek scanner
If I recall correctly, the driver that mustek provides does not have all its source code included, so it cannot be made a part of sane-backends. Perhaps someday someone who wants this scanner to work with truly free software will write a backend for it. allan On Mon, Mar 26, 2012 at 3:54 PM, T.Kov?cs csal?d t.kovacs.csalad at gmail.com wrote: Sorry, Y need to repeat my problem.
