You must add the backend name to configure.in, and various backend file names in several places in backend/Makefile.am. Look for an existing backend name to see all the places. Do the same for your manpages and description files in doc/. Then run automake (rebuilds all the Makefile.in files) and

The scanner seems to make many afe calibration passes. Perhaps your LED or sensors are getting weak. I think you can bypass this part of the calibration by adding info to your sane.d/gt68xx.conf: afe 0x0a 0x00 0x09 0x01 0x09 0x01 see 'man sane-gt68xx' for more info. allan On Thu, Aug 4, 2011
