according to http://snapscan.sourceforge.net/ it is the same pb as agfa usb
one. you need a firmware update from your windows driver. thus i cant support
it out of box. you need to do the firmware update. but it will work (normaly)
if you do the firmware. you do not need anything more.
Btw, cat you send me the output of "cat /proc/bus/usb/devices" ?
For the firmware pb, please call Acer and ask them to release the spec of
their scanners

Hi Yves,
i think not to tell you something new, but i read your letter and i thought
to write you about my scanner  acer prisa 320usb ( that someone tells is the
same as Acer 340 USB )
Is out there any possibility to see it working under Linux ( mandrake 8.1.)
Thanks in advance

Oggetto: [Cooker] scannerdrake updated -- please test it


I just made an heavy update to scannerdrake and ScannerDB thanks to yours
contributions following my call some weeks ago. It should now handle and
configure most of the scsi and usb scanner that are known to be working
under
linux.

BUT, there is NO support (for the moment, working on it asap) :
- parallel scanner
- hp officejet scanner (first on my todo list)
- scsi autodetection, you need to chose you scanner from the list
- agfa usb scanner due to the necessary firmware update from windows driver
  (and i won't never support them).

It currently autodetects and configures the hp, epson and mustek *USB*
scanners.

You will find everything by updating to drakxtools-1.1.7-41mdk.
so if you encour any pb of any kind, please report me, or if your scanner is
not in the list, report me too...
thanks
