Suggestions/Advice/comments are welcome and appreciated.
To hit some relevant points...
The uscanner device is gone, no longer needed with FreeBSD-8.
devfs.conf hasn't been effective for dynamic devices for me. Copying
the clever technique from sysutils/scanbuttond/pkg-message.in, I use
devd.conf to detect the scanner attach and detach devices and change
permissions and do whatever else is necessary. Scanner users are a
member of the saned group.
# WB
# detect Epson Perfection 1640SU scanner and start scanbuttond
attach 20 {
device-name "ugen[0-9].[0-9]";
match "vendor" "0x04b8";
match "product" "0x010a";
action "usb_devaddr=`echo $device-name | sed 's#^ugen##'` && \
chown root:saned /dev/usb/${usb_devaddr}.* && \
chmod 0660 /dev/usb/${usb_devaddr}.* && \
su saned -c '/usr/local/bin/scanbuttond \
-s /usr/local/etc/scanbuttond/buttonpressed.sh \
-S /usr/local/etc/scanbuttond/initscanner.sh \
-b /usr/local/lib/libscanbtnd-backend_epson.so'";
};
# WB
# remove Epson Perfection 1640SU uscanner0 link and stop scanbuttond
detach 20 {
device-name "ugen[0-9].[0-9]";
match "vendor" "0x04b8";
match "product" "0x010a";
action "/usr/bin/pkill scanbuttond";
};
