[sane-devel] Scanner Button Daemon [scanbd]: added more backends (from scanbuttond)
Hello, Am 02.12.2010 00:12, schrieb m. allan noah: That's an interesting solution. Yes, you can call it weird ;-) But it was the fastest for me way to include the fucntionality needed. I probably would have tried to add the button reading code to the sane backend... I would be very happy if there would be any effort to do so. But this is out of my scope at the moment. allan On Wed, Dec 1, 2010 at 1:01 PM, Wilhelm wilhelm.meier at fh-kl.de wrote: Hi all, some time ago I noticed that the snapscan-backend (at least for the epson 1670 scanner) isn't capable of reading the buttons.
