SANE and NetBSD ---------------- Building: --------- Don't forget to use GNU make (gmake). E.g. "MAKE=gmake ./configure". SANE should compile and install out-of-the-box. Since SANE 1.0.8 shared libraries are working again. SCSI-scanners: -------------- If the SCSI host adapter is supported, there are no known problems. Try sane-find-scanner to find out the correct device and edit the backend's configuration file appropriately or set a link /dev/scanner to the device file. Auto-configuration using the "scsi *" lines in the config files doesn't work. USB-scanners: ------------- USB-Scanners are supported in principle. Access over libusb is tested. It's unknown, if a kernel usb scanner driver works. Make sure that the kernel is NOT compiled with DIAGNOSTIC. Disable it in the config file or use a GENERIC kernel without DIAGNOSTIC. If it is, you will get errors like "ugenioctl: USB_SET_TIMEOUT, no pipe". Make sure, that /dev/ugen* and /dev/usb* devices are available. Use /dev/MAKEDEV to create them, if necessary. Parport-scanners: ----------------- I don't have any information about these. Please contact me or the SANE mailing list if you succeded in using one of these. 2002-07-14 Henning Meier-Geinitz <henning@meier-geinitz.de>
