Using DEBIAN 3.1
I am having trouble figuring out how to add a film scanner. Using
deb/linux 3.1, I am installing SANE but it fails to find the scanner
device. This is being connected through an Adaptec scsi AHA2940UW
which is listed as compatible by Minolta. This device is ok, and I
am running the OS off a disk attached to the same SCSI device.
I think the problem is that however SANE views a scanner device, is
different than how Debian 3.1 sees it. I am hoping someone can
either tell me how to add this device in or point me to a resource
that would help me. Thanks.
(Incidentally, Minolta does not support this device in XP, so the
only real use for these scanners will be in a linux environment. The
scanners themselves tend to be under utilized in their lifetime, so
it is reasonable that they will have
a very long life. Likewise, people will be realizing that you can
get pretty good deals on older film cameras. Thus for us cheap
skates, it would be great to attach old film scanners to process our
film from old cameras on old PC's being kept alive under Linux.)
