[sane-devel] PIXMA: 1 Bit B/W Lineart for pixma_mp150 and pixma_mp810 Subdrivers

2012-02-04 Thread Rolf Bensch
Hi Allan, I still reused the code from the genesys backend. But without a capable genesys or epjitsu scanner I took the code snippets I understood. Please give me a short summary about the missing parts. Especially of the needed interface parameters and the frontend usage e.g. xsane. Many

[sane-devel] PIXMA: 1 Bit B/W Lineart for pixma_mp150 and pixma_mp810 Subdrivers

2012-02-03 Thread Rolf Bensch
Hello, I just commited 1 bit B/W lineart for all scanners in the pixma_mp150 and pixma_mp810 subdrivers to the git tree. Due to the fact that these ccd scanners doesn't support generic lineart, I implemented software-lineart. The graphic frontend (Xsane) provides a slider to set the

Hello, Some scanners supported from the PIXMA driver have different dpi capabilities for flatbed and ADF/TPU modes: e.g. CS9000F supports 75-4800 dpi in flatbed mode and 300-9600 dpi in TPU mode. There are two new parameters in pixma_config_t: ext_min_dpi and ext_max_dpi to configure

2012-01-05 Thread Rolf Bensch
Hello, I would like to add 48 bits support for flatbed color scans to the pixma_mp810 sub-driver. This can be controlled by the capability PIXMA_CAP_48BIT. Does it mean that the scanner will always scan color images with 48 bits? Is there any parameter available to select 24 bits or 48 bits

While analysing this problem dont't forget that vga16 and nvidia (and other graphic drivers) are sharing the same primary frame buffer device /dev/fb0 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/459639/comments/52). Vga16 is the first available graphics driver at boot time, and will

This is a duplicate of bug #459639. Robert, your comment #9 shows the main problem. vga16 and nvidia use the same frame buffer device /dev/fb0 during boot up (see: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/459639/comments/52). With this the start conditions in kdm.conf for the

I found the reason for this problem. The kernel initialises the framebuffer /dev/fb0 device with the vesa driver (vga16fb) before it starts loading the nvidia driver. You can see this in the attached syslog file. ** Attachment added: syslog http://launchpadlibrarian.net/51976046/syslog --
