Hallo,
I have installed the sane back end sane-1.0.17-0.pm.0.i586.rpm on my SUSE
LINUX 10.0 system (Kernel Linux 2.6.13-15-default) using YAST2. I have got
a incomplete error message from YAST2 when tying to install my MEDION MD
3545 USB scanner, nevertheless I can find the scanner within the sane KDE
menu.
I can start the preview scan and will get the expected preview image
exactly one time. Each additional scan (preview ore final) will fail. The
resulting image is all the times the same, it seems that the first pixel
row will be repeated over all rows of the whole image. The scanner mechanic
itself will work well all the time.
The scanner will respond with this constant image up to a power down and up
cycle of the scanner! Rebooting the computer will have no impact to this
behaviour.
Did you have any idea how to solve this problem?
Thanks
Klaus
Hello,
I don't know what scanning program you are using, but there is a bug in
SANE
1.0.17 where the first scan of a second frontend session (ie a previous was
finished) would hang and fail.It is fixed in CVS by now. So I think it is
worth testing with this version.
By using LD_PRELOAD, you can force your favorite frontend to use
a hand-compiled version without installing systerm-wide.
Regards,
Stef
