gt68xx.CHANGES -*-text-*- V 1.0-37 (2003-01-18) - Removed untested flag from A3 USB and Lexmark X70/X73. V 1.0-36 (2003-01-09) - Updated manpage and .desc concerning Lexmark X70. - Updated manpage concerning kernel 2.4.21-pre3 containing the 1-endpoint fix. - Fixed A3 USB resolution setting. - Updated A3 USB margins (Pedro Morais <morais@inocam.com>). - Added detection of Genius Colorpage Vivid3x. It's unknown if it works. - Updated .desc file. - Don't print calib line warnings by default. V 1.0-35 (2002-12-23) - Added "afe" option for gt68xx.conf for selecting default afe values. - Removed AFE and exposure SANE options. - Added documentation for afe option in gt68xx.conf. V 1.0-34 (2002-12-18) - fixed gt68xx_gt6801 -> lamp control. - adjusted Plustek 1248U geometry and afe values. - CCD gross calibration changed: start with the default value from module struct. Is faster now for most cases. - Only 2.5 mm of calibration for GT-6801 scanners. V 1.0-33 (2002-12-10) - Updated ScanExpress 2400 USB values (from "Fan Dan" <dan_fancn@hotmail.com>). - Added implementation of gt6801 lamp control for CCD scanners. - Added flag for SE 2400 USB, added some quirks in gt68xx_gt6801.c. V 1.0-32 (2002-12-08) - "Coarse calibration for first scan only" is off by default now. As at least CIS calibration is faster now, it doesn't seem to be necessary and produces wrong images sometimes. - Added gamma table. - Setup gamma to 2.0 by default. - Fixed (hopefully) sigpipe when cancelling. - No geometry quantization anymore (not necessary). That should fix scanimage warnings. - Plustek 1248U: do linemode for every resolution, fix color correction. - Set SANE_CAP_EMULATED for gamma value. - Added comments for every Model member in gt68xx_devices. - Added Plustek UT16B and Genius Vivid3x to .desc. - Added implementation for inverted offset for CCD scanners. - Added Mustek ScanExpress 2400 USB.

The default values from the model struct and the last values are used for calculation. - Set default AFE values for ScanExpress 1200 UB Plus, BearPaw 1200 CU, BearPaw 2400 CU Plus. V 1.0-27 (2002-10-25) - Bugfix: override applies to all devices found by the last usb line. - Individual resolutions + depth values for every scanner. - Bugfix: Mirroring code had an off-by-one error (garbage in the first column). - Artec Ultima 2000, MD 9385: Removed 1200 dpi mode (doesn't seem to work?), added 100 and 200 dpi modes. Renamed model to Artec Ultima 2000, because that's probably the "father" of all the clones. - Mustek BearPaw 1200 CU: Added 200 dpi mode. - Added manual page. - Removed override for Packard Bell (seems to be exact Bearpaw 1200 CU Plus clone). - Removed override for Trust Copmact Scan and Medion/Tevion/Lifetec LT 9452 (Mustek ScanExpress 1200 UB Plus clones). - Removed override for Tevion MD 9458 (seems to be an Artec Ultima 2000 (e +?) clone). V 1.0-26 (2002-10-22) - Several fixes for Medion MD-9385 and Artec Ultima 2000 based scanners. The Cytron MD 9385 works now. - Diabled Plustek-like firmware check again, didn't work for MD 9385. - Splitted flags for mirror_x and sset_home.

No wait for the fixed time of 40 seconds any more. - The scan slider of the GT-6816 bsed scanners don't move home after calibration/gain. TA mode is faster therefore. - Added hack for Tevion MD 9458 to solve the mirror and "scan-slider doesn't come home" problems. - Fixed BearPaw 1200 TA 1200 dpi problem. - Fixed manual firmware selection in gt68xx.conf. - Added warning if power supply isn't ok. V 1.0-22 (2002-10-07), - Mustek Bearpaw 2400 CU Plus works in gray mode again - Line calibration uses the bit depth of the main scan now. - Vendor, product ids and other information is printed when debugging is active - Fixed segfault in attach (). - Fixed endianess issues (untested). - Code cleanup.
