Interesting. Have you, or anyone else here, used that scanner? Do
scanned documents look OK without calibration? I guess I can crop the
images afterwards -- so I could live with limited area-selection.

That's too bad...

It seems that the Visigo A4 or Visigo Travelscan 464 is supported
through SANE [1]. Have anyone any experience with this scanner? Does it
work well, is reliable etc? Alternately, has anyone gotten the Visigo
PS465 Simplex [2] (an updated version, I guess) to work on Linux?

I'm also interested in any other light-weight, portable and sturdy
scanners that would work in Linux. It's for scanning documents, so a
resolution of about 300 dpi should be plenty.

2008-06-03 Thread Kjell André Lende
Hi,

I was wondering if anyone has had any luck getting the PENTAX DSmobile
600 scanner to work in SANE/on Linux? I would very much like to purchase
it, but there is no point in that if it doesn't work on my system...
