My wife's oldest son just sent me the following note:

Thanks.
I have had some problems recently with usbsnoop (sniff-bin-1.8) which I wonder
if anyone else has encountered and, if so, whether any workarounds are known:

But will that new version run on Win2K? Says there it will not. Of course,
if that is the only solution I guess I have to do it.

Hi,
Greetings from gphoto. We just got someone with an Argus DC-1512e write in
to us. The camera reports itself as 0x0979:0x0227 and from mfgr. Jeilin.
I went to the website of Jeilin, and they also claim to make scanner
chips. Thus, just in case I end up getting involved in supporting this

Advice, please?

I am not one of the regular SANE developers, but I am quite active in
another, similar project, Gphoto, which supports digital still cameras. I
find this thread interesting because it raises issues which affect us all.
I hope very much that the SANE developers will not mind if

And here we see the problem, in a nutshell. My own course is quite similar
to Allan's, though I do my work for another project.
I think that what is going to have to happen, ultimately, is that some of
these hardware manufacturers are going to see if they can find a

Hi,
Don't know about the scanner, but I do know a bit about the internals of
libgphoto2. The problem with the scanner is most probably similar to what
appears to happen with the camera:
With approximately 99% probability, I would say that your problem with the
camera is a permissions problem.
Well, it seems that you are well on the way to solving the problems. What
you have to do about the camera ought to be quite similar to what you have
to do about the scanner. The reason why I cannot give you more specific
advice is that I have no idea of the way that Hardy Heron is setting up
t
the "open" operation the option O_CREAT
and this takes care of the problem. Suitably edited file attached at the
end of this note.

This works. I got a scan out of it.
Further remarks:
1. apparently I had to rmmod scanner first, or it was unhappy.
2. I had to run the program as root
3. It didn't want somehow to create the temporary file n670u.raw, but
after I did
touch n670u.raw
it went right ahead and did the scan and exit
I have now tested sane-1.08 with plustek-sane-0_44_2 on my Canoscan N670U.
Compilation was routine and fast. I did have to edit the configutation
file in /etc/sane.d to point at /dev/usb/scanner0, because I am using
devfs and there is no such device here as /dev/usbscanner. But after this

Gerard has given you very good advice. Permit me to expand on it a bit.
Also feel free to contact me personally, after checking whether your
camera is mass-storage and after comparing it to the gphoto2 list of

Martin,
Thanks for letting us know that the photo was mirrored, and thanks
for sending me the raw version of the photo. It came out pretty
much the same as it should for me, after I did the following special steps
while converting to PPM format:
Vertical flip (byte-reversal of entire image)
38 matches
