[sane-devel] [Fwd: Problem with Boolean search on SANE site -- R.C.]
Hi, I'm trying to see what SANE has to offer for page scanners or sheet scanners (the portable, non-bulk feed variety). I selected Boolean search, then entered search terms: page scanner, page scanner and, page and scanner, plus the same combinations for sheet scanner It seems there is no way of searching for a string? I'm search results with both words separated, or, with both words concatenated (with no space between). Could you give me an example I could follow? I don't quite understand what exactly you want to do. The search engine is an htdig engine, so you can check their documentation: http://www.htdig.org/hts_method.html So a search like (page OR sheet) AND scanner is valid. However, there's no way to search for documents where the words page and scanner are close to each other. You can try google for that: http://google.com/search?q=page-scanner%20site:lists.alioth.debian.org regards -- jochen
[sane-devel] hal fdi rules to grant user saned access to scanner devices
Hi, I don't know whether somebody came up with a similar or better solution, so here's mine: On new linux installations, where hal is used to manage device access rights, the old way of granting user saned access rights to scanners by adding the user to the group scanner or so no longer works. hal will add and remove individual users to the acl of the device file, while the file itself is owned by root. Adding the following rule to /etc/hal/fdi/policy/saned.fdi also adds user saned to the acl: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8? deviceinfo version=0.2 device match key=info.capabilities contains=access_control match key=access_control.type contains=scanner append key=access_control.grant_user type=strlistsaned/append /match /match /device /deviceinfo if nobody comes up with a better idea, i'll include this on the saned troubleshooting webpage soon regards -- jochen

[sane-devel] Thinking about trying to add support for Mustek 1200 III EP
Hi, I once started to write a driver for this scanner, which was quite unstable and only supported greyscale scanning. Basically, it's a modification of the ccd300 driver. I'm always thankful if somebody wants to take over a part of the backend by adding support for a scanner. However, this is quite a difficult and lengthy process. The low-level communication is already there, and the mustek_pp backend is written in such a way that you only have to implement the scanner protocol, the SANE protocol is handled by generic wrappers. anway, i'll try to find some usable material about this scanner - without that it's kinda worthless to start in the first place kind regards -- jochen

Hi,
I just wrote a short patch to sane-find-scanner which detects mustek
parallel port devices. With sanei_pa4s2 it's possible to get a list of
possible ports. All the patch does is trying to open those ports using
the sanei_pa4s2 - the sanei_pa4s2 contains the whole low-level stuff, so
no device dependant code is included in sane-find-scanner.
In order to avoid problems with parallel port printers or other hardware
if no scanner is present, you have to give the switch -p to
sane-find-scanner if you want your scanner detected.
Example:
# sane-find-scanner -p -q
found possible Mustek parallel port scanner at parport0
Any comments on this?
kind regards

Most important changes are support for libieee1284 and a function sanei_pa4s2_devices() returning possible device names (could be used inside sane_find_scanner or within the sane_init function of mustek_pp). Please test this new sanei. It works for me[tm] and if nobody objects I'll add it after the next release to the CVS.

[sane-devel] Mustek ASIC 1505 Scanners
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Melanie wrote: I have been given a Mustek ScanExpress A3 EP scanner, which turned out to be 1505 based (ID 0xA2). I have so far located 3 different Mustek backends, only one of which offers the beginnings of support for the 1505 chipset. three different backends? the cvs penguin-breeder one are the same but different version... but which is the third? The one that is included in the most recent SANE release has a #define that, when turned on, will make the driver recognize the chip. However, there is no further support for the chipset and the scanner simply sits there and does nothing. Yes, I added those defines to have some point to start when some day there would be support for this scanner. The main issue, as far as I see, is to write the code to get the scanner to move the carriage and start sending image data. My assumption, based on the fact that existing code is able to turn the lamp off, is that basic communication with the scanner is possible using existing code as well. mhm, to reuse such common code is the aim of the new version located at penguin-breeder.org I would be interested in finding out if anyone has ever had any success in activating even the most basic functions on 1505 scanners, and possibly source code or documentation to that effect. If there is driver development in progress, I also would be interested to find out the current status and maybe join in for a few lines of code, too. there were somebody working on this, but i have lost track of him/her and never heard of a success story Finally, I wonder if the person who has once received a favourable response from Mustek is subscribed to this list and would be willing to try for the source code to the 1505 based scanner's TWAIN driver as well, or would at least disclose the contact at Mustek who has previously released information and / or source code. that would be me then... actually, we came to the most interesting part here... and it's nearly midnight again...

Hi, the debian package does _not_ include the gphoto2 backend by default, you have to modify the debian/rules file to configure the gphoto2 backend, i.e. include the option --with-gphoto2 in the configure call.

I had no /dev/scanner entry in my /dev directory therefore, after much scrabbling around and guessing, I created a symbolic link from /dev/lp0 to /dev/scanner. the mustek_pp backend doesn't support devices yet, you have to specify the port number of your parallel port in /etc/sane.d/mustek_pp.conf (or /usr/local/etc/sane.d/mustek_pp.conf depending on your installation) I chose /dev/lp0 as this is the entry in /etc/printcap that equates to the lp printer, and my mustek 1200cp scanner (CIS chipset with the software patch from Eddy DeGreef) shares that port. I edited /etc/sane.d/dll.conf and removed the comment in front of mustek_pp. I edited /etc/sane.d/mustek_pp.conf and changed the port to 0x3bc as per the instrcutions in that file. My problem is that when I run xsane I get the message 'no devices available'. I've tried specifying mustek_pp:/dev/scanner and mustek_pp:/dev/lp0 (and 1). But all of these fail. In the file mustek_pp.conf you've also specified the name for the scanner, which you want to use, for example name SM-1200CP, then you have to use the device mustek_pp:SM-12000CP. Furthermore, you can only access the scanner as root. To allow users to scan, you have to setup the SANE Network Scanner daemon.

[sane-devel] saned
Hi!
service sane
{
port= 6566
socket_type = stream
wait= no
user= saned
group = saned
server = /usr/sbin/saned
}
If you want to access pp scanners using saned, saned should run as user
root. If not, make sure, user/group saned exists.
ouf ! : ) now GIMP still cant use the scanner.
Where have i gone wrong ?
Maybe saned isn't started, you can test this by telneting the saned port:
# telnet localhost 6566
If the connection is refused, the xinetd config is wrong. If you can
connect, you can continue:
stop xinetd and start saned from the commandline:
# /etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd stop (or something like that...)
# saned -d128
now you should get some debug output from saned (in your syslog there should
also be some interesting stuff)
Logged in as an user try this: (assuming you use bash)
$ SANE_DEBUG_NET=128 scanimage -L
Either this or the saned should now give you some further hints, where to
search for possible errors.
I agree with the previous post there is a need for a simple 1,2,3 type
step by step instruction for these scanners.
I use mine in root mode for now cause i need to do this.
An easy way to do this ( that dosent need the user be a programmer )
is really needed.As Linux makes it's way in more and more desktops and
normal users are getting Linux on their systems,i am under the
impression
that scanner documentation and software really needs be simplified to
allow
normal (read non programmers) users to successfully use their equipment.
Hu... I know. I'm working on it

[sane-devel] xinetd.conf add this to documentation .
Hi!
nice to hear that it's working...
i found it ..and got it working .
there was a } in xinetd.conf missing at the end.
i modified it but i simply had not restarted xinetd.
all works.
But still a comment about xinetd
the modification i made to the file works.
I suggest this to be included in the documentation.
ex
Add to /etc/xinetd.conf the file following lines:
service sane
{
socket_type = stream
server = /usr/sbin/saned
protocol = tcp
user = root
wait = no
disable = no
}
I'll note it... could you perhaps send me your xinetd config files?

Hi!
[G. L. `Griz' Inabnit]
Good day,
I recently aquired a Mustek 6000 III EP Plus parelell port scanner. As
root,
it works wonderfully.

sanestream tcp nowait saned.saned /usr/sbin/saned
saned
you have to run saned as root (although not recommende in the man-page).
just replace saned.saned by root.root.
I fought with the setup/install of this poor flatbed for hours and
hours.
Trying multiple variations of this-that-and-the-other-thing. Nothing seemed
to work. But when I did a 'scanimage --list-devices' as root, sure enough it
was there (I had su'd to root in an xterm to do this). I could not figure out
what the complaint was with xsane other than being told that no devices
existed for use. The scanner was seen, id'd, and said to be working, yet when
I called xsane as a user (griz), I was told there where no scanning devices.
Accidently, I started 'xsane' in the xterm that I had su'd to root in.
PRESTO!! It not only came up and ran (after the bitchbox)!! Also,it beat the
hell outta the speed it ever had in Windon't (BravoZulu people!!). So, then I
tried it as a user again. Nothing. (sigh)
So, onto Google. Do a search for 'xsane mail list'. Bang! There is one!
Fantastic!! They have an archive. Life IS Good! Search the archive. Find two
messages, one from Richard (CC: above)
{http://www.mostang.com/pipermail/sane-devel/2001-July/79.html}
and another from jochen
{http://www.mostang.com/pipermail/sane-devel/2001-July/82.html} stating
that the sane.d server would cure the problem.
Uh, it didn't. :--) Although I'm not honestly sure I've set it up
correctly, nor do I know how to assertain if the daemon is actually running.
1.Which device is this scanner connected to? I do not have anything in
/dev
that screams out I'm the scanner! and I don't see anything in
/var/log/messages (nor dmesg | less).
the scanner is not attached to a device, the driver accesses it directly.
2.How can I reconfigure the machine so that regular users have access to
the
scanner, software, use w/o su'ing to root?
run saned as root, use passwords to protect the service (see man saned,
man sane-net man scanimage)
3.Are there any log files for sane/xsane? I do not find anything in /var
or
anywhere else to speak of.
if you run saned from the command line with option -d128 you'll get debug
output.
At this time I'm fairly sure it's a simple permissions issue, but I've
yet
to discover WHICH packages needed corrected or which device I may need access
to.
Please keep Richard included on any responces to me, please. As we are
working on this together. And if there is any other System Info (e.g versions
of software, hardware info, log files, etc) required, just let me know and
it will be included on the next mailing to the list.
Respectfully,
Griz

[sane-devel] saned to solve root issue ?

It semed if i had understood well i had to set saned to run as root. but then two things pop to mind 1 - Ok first is easy it's how to set saned to run as root ( im an incompetent ..im still trying to figure how to make saned eun always as root ) that's the solution. replace saned.saned in /etc/inetd.conf by root.root 2 - Second once it's set how do i use the saned daemon ,how do i call it ? see the man page saned and sane-net for a detailed description Keep in mind im no programmer but a simple folk trying to have his scanner work so i can scan the wife's family photos to put into her family tree.. PS as ROOT user i used GIMP and bingo ..it works beautifully but like Griz mentioned it would be way better to use both as non root. And Griz dont despair ..there is no actual device .it's a virtual device if i understood correctly , so we did not find any devices to chmod , there aint one.. : ) So if anyone can help clarify this both of us would greatly appreciate Thank you for your patience.

[sane-devel] network scanner problems
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1
Hi!
Does network scanning work with scanimage and/or xsane?
Here it works also with xscanimage...
regards
- -- jochen
[Guido Socher]
Has anybody seen the following problem with the net backend
in sane 1.0.5?
The xscanimage program crashes because it tries to write
data to a closed connection.
The connection is closed in the sane_read() function in
net.c because it executes this code:
if (s-bytes_remaining == (size_t) - 1)
{
char ch;
/* turn off non-blocking I/O (s-data will be closed anyhow): */
fcntl (s-data, F_SETFL, 0);
/* read the status byte: */
if (read (s-data, ch, sizeof (ch)) != 1)
ch = SANE_STATUS_IO_ERROR;
do_cancel (s);
return (SANE_Status) ch;
}
That is s-bytes_remaining is -1 and then do_cancel(s) is
called which closes the connection.
Next xscanimage (ignoring the closed connection) tries
to set some control options using this
closed connection and that is where the sigpipe is received.
The interessting thing is that the scan as such is ok, i.e I can
see the full picture in the preview for a second.
I have the feeling that the -1 record length is used as a special
value to signal the end of the scan and unfortunately net.c
thinks that this is an error. Is that possible?
It think that is is the case because scanning directly without
the network inbetween works perfectly.
Anybody who managed to get the network scan backend to work in
1.0.5?

[sane-devel] Parallel as non root
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi! The solution to your problem is the SANE network daemon saned. You can install saned who is running as root (yes, the man-page says, this isn't recommended) and allow users to access to scanner over TCP. Please see the man-pages saned, sane-net and sane-mustek_pp for hints how to setup this. Information about user authentication with passwords is provided in the man-pages saned and scanimage. regards - -- jochen [Richard] Good evening I thought i had it made. Xsane recognised the scanner and i was in business..so i thought. In the archives there is a letter addressing just that. http://www.mostang.com/mail-archive/sane-devel/2001-01/0195.html I changed owner and chmod the files as suggested. Then when i tested SANE_DEBUG_MUSTEK_PP=255 xsane in non root mode i had a surprise. Gtk-WARNING **: This process is currently running setuid or setgid. This is not a supported use of GTK+. You must create a helper program instead. For further details, see: http://www.gtk.org/setuid.html Refusing to initialize GTK+. Running xsane by itself also returns this unpleasant warning. So where do i go from now ? Is this fixed in the new sane 1.0.5 ? Will a new frontend fix this ? Sincere thanks Richard Hebert _ Do You Yahoo!?

[sane-devel] RH 7.0 sane and Mustek 600 III EP Plus
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi! Sorry for the late reply, they don't have decent Internet access here at the north-sea beach... :P I'm glad to read that the problem is already solved. [Henning Meier-Geinitz] When i get it going ill write a simple Mustek 600 how-to so if anything like this hits someone else they will have a few good pointers. I'm sure Jochen Eisinger will update the manual page and website, if there is something he has forgotten to mention. Yep, please let me know. I appreciate such help very much. regards - -- jochen - -- falsie salesman, n: Fuller bust man.
