I've tried kernel 2.6.6 and encounter various problems: one is that
magicfilter no longer works properly and another is that I don't find a
config entry for my usb Epson scanner.
It seems that there is no module for usb scanners in the current versions of the 2.6 kernel (I use 2.6.6-1-686).
Has anybody any clues about that ? Am I missing something or is it normal, and it's just a matter of waiting for next versions?
You are supposed to use libusb for sane in the 2.6 kernel. There is a little discription on that at http://www.freecolormanagement.com/sane/libusb.html
If you're thinking on upgrading to a 2.6 kernel,
- try and get alsa working (you need alsa modules for that in the 2.4 kerlen)
- move to libusb
(possibly more things to get ready...?)
By the way, 2.6 is a bit faster than 2.4 :-) HTH,
Joris
