[Bug 24946] Re: Detected scanner fails to load with Invalid Argument
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 195782 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/195782 Regarding 'artec_eplus48u, here is the manual working solution for Ubuntu 10.10 (possibly also applicable to Ubutnu 10.04 and some versions before that, down to year 2007, according to web sites). After doing: sane-find-scanner , this is the result for a MEDION MD4394: found USB scanner (vendor=0x05d8, product=0x4003, chip=GT-6816) at libusb:003:002 Keep in mind, there are possibly two different revisions of this scanner family. === Solution 1 (possible first revision): This scanner might be possibly misidentified to work with the gt68xx driver (http://www.meier-geinitz.de/sane/gt68xx-backend/). The procedure should be, to add following lines to the end of /etc/sane.d/gt68xx.confm to perform manual override: usb 0x05d8 0x4003 override artec-ultima-2000 firmware Artec48.usb Also, the firmware is required!! It must be placed in /usr/share/sane/gt68xx/ . After that, the scanner in question responds, but may stall or make weird noises due to be variant 2 chipset. === Solution 2 (worked in my case): More probable match is the artec_eplus48u backend. The file /etc/sane.d/artec_eplus48u.conf must be modified. Add the end, add this: # -- # MD4394 test usb 0x05d8 0x4003 option artecFirmwareFile /usr/share/sane/artec_eplus48u/Artec48.usb option ePlusPro 1 option vendorString Artec option modelString MD 4393 Also, the firmware is required!! It must be placed in /usr/share/sane/artec_eplusu/ . === Also - possible backend override may be neccessary: /etc/sane.d/dll.conf must possibly be modified. In my case, it loaded automatically the unmatching in the list (gt68xx), which was wrong match. So comment out this line : gt68xx into #gt68xx and artec backend will be used instead. === Also - firmware is mandatory: Firmware can be, for example, gotten from windows CD (in the driver directory, usually the file with extension .usb). It is neccesary to exist in the correct /usr/share/sane subdir, in order for the scanner to work. Firmware name might diffe, keep that in mind. But usually has an extension .usb. === Suggestion: I suggest, that sll this, now done manually, should be made somehow automatically working in Ubuntu in future (i.e. a wizard with possible subtypes, when this PID is detected). This would make life easier, === Other distros: The procedure is the same for other distros with sane, except the location of firmware and sane config dirs might differ. -- Detected scanner fails to load with Invalid Argument https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/24946 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 195782 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/195782 Ignore my last report and take this solution instead: The problem about the device state EBUSY is that my device has a cardreader attached and is a printer: lsmod showns usblp and usb_storage being loaded. This causes the EBUSY state, wehen doing modprobe -r usblp and modprobe -r usb_storage, the scanner is working fine. At another page, I read about someone having patched xsane to ignore EBUSY, this seemns to work correctly enough to be useable. -- Detected scanner fails to load with Invalid Argument https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/24946 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Stephen Many thanks for the email. I did copy the correct file over from my win 2000 system and you probably missed that sane worked once and the scanner scanned and I was happy. However after a reboot it has never worked again. I have almost forgotten about it. I'll have another go and let you know.

After a reboot I have the libusb error message. Driver manager sees the scanner. As user no device . I see in man sane-usb it says as below. Ubuntu 6.06 has libusb0.1.4 Could this be the problem ???
