Henning tried but couldn't get a Visioneer 5800 in Germany to work with. I don't know of anyone else, but if you find a way of moving ahead I'd like to hear about it. On Wed, 6 Aug 2003 21:25:11 -0500 Dennis Rogers writes: > Was anyone else working on it, and did you make any progress? > > -DR

Hey all, A few days ago some people were posting back and forth on the list about writing a backend for a Visioneer 5800 USB. I was just wondering if that undertaking is still going on or has been abandoned. I haven't written code with Linux yet, having been a user for less than a month, but

Yes I believe it's HP 3500 Scanjet also using the RTS8801 chipset which is one of the unsupported scanners on the list. Is there some way of using that info to get a model or example of what my task is to write a scanner for my Visioneer 5800? --- gerard klaver wrote: On Wed, 2003-07-02 at 1

I'm interested in writing a backend for my Visioneer 5800. I've written some C code in my lifetime but that's about all the prerequisites that I have to bring to the project. I've opened up the box but couldn't get to the chipset for fear of damaging the wiring harness. Any suggestions about

I'm a newbie who just got his USB printer working and decided to tackle the scanner next. So far I've found the Vendor number and Product ID and inserted them into the modules.conf file. QUESTION: Is it a foregone conclusion that I need to recompile the kernel next or is there a scanner instal
