I don't think that there is a FAQ but at least current README.darwin files contain some info. The problem is that MacOS X is not a typical Unix. That means that the everything is a file view is not correct for MacOS X. So we can't sue functions like fork() because e.g. USB access permissions aren't inherited. That breaks all backends which use fork on MacOS X. The solution is to use threads instead of sub-processes. That's what the sanei_usb API does. However, all the backends that may be of interest on MacOS X have to be converted to that API. That's not trivial in all cases. Please tell us about your success/failure on FreeBSD and MacOS X. So far FreeBSD isn't going very well, but I'd be more than happy to try OS-X if the build process is documented somewhere. README.darwin (+ the general README). If something doesn't work, please tell us. Bye, Henning

Hi, I just installed Sane 1.0.13 on FreeBSD 5.1. I have a Umax Astra 2200-US scanner (scsi and usb), but only have a USB interface on my workstation. The OS detects that there's a scanner plugged in: uscanner0: UMAX Data Systems Astra 2200U Scanner, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 2 sane-find-scanner also sees something there: root@green[/usr/local/etc/sane.d]# sane-find-scanner # No SCSI scanners found.

It may or may not be supported by # SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage. However running a test with scanimage (specifying the device/driver directly) just hangs.

And lastly, I also have an iBook running OS-X 10.3.2. Is this scanner known to work under OS-X and Sane (Umax abandoned all support for these older models for OS-X)? Thanks! Charles

I don't have this scanner, but our lists tell us: Astra 2200 (SU) USB OK, needs USB control messages It should work if you use libusb (generic USB access) instead of the uscanner driver. I guess you must tell the uscanner driver not to detect your scanner. Disabling that driver should work, but maybe there is a more intelligent method. SANE itsself must be linked against libusb. This is the deafult if libusb is found during build. First of all, is this an officially supported scanner? Looking at the mailing lists it seems others have it working. I think so. Well, the lists say it's SU, not US. And lastly, I also have an iBook running OS-X 10.3.2.

Enabling debug output shows the following: Hi Charles, I operate the same type of scanner. Honestly, scsi interface works better with Linux (sane/xsane) as the USB interface. But due to comfort reasons I operate the scanner connected via USB (easier connect/disconnect) whithout real impact on functionality. The lesson I learned is: - switch quality calibration off - use only libusb, I have deleted scanner.o from /lib/modules or did compile the kernel without scanner support for USB at another machine to have connection only via libusb.
