Hi folks I have two problems - hope somebody can help.
1) Weird vertical stripes when scanning See http://www.emptynet.demon.co.uk/vertical_stripes.pnm I am delighted that my scanner is recognised by sane, but sadly the results of a scan are unusable due to the colour bands that are uniformly spread down the page. I assume that there is nothing I can do, but here's my setup in case somebody has any ideas: Macintosh G4/400 running Yellow Dog Linux 2.1 (2.4.10-something) xsane-0.77 sane-backends-1.05 sane-frontends-1.05 2) When I downloaded the sane-frontends and sane-backends version 1.06, I tried to compile the backends first, and get the following error: > make[1]: Entering directory `/home/michthom/sane-backends-1.0.6/tools' > gcc -o umax_pp umax_pp.o ../backend/umax_pp_low.o ../sanei/libsanei.a > ../lib/liblib.a -lnsl -lm -ljpeg > ../backend/umax_pp_low.o: In function `Outb': > /home/michthom/sane-backends-1.0.6/backend/umax_pp_low.c:642: undefined > reference to `outb' > /home/michthom/sane-backends-1.0.6/backend/umax_pp_low.c:642: relocation > truncated to fit: R_PPC_REL24 outb > ../backend/umax_pp_low.o: In function `Inb': > /home/michthom/sane-backends-1.0.6/backend/umax_pp_low.c:699: undefined > reference to `inb' > /home/michthom/sane-backends-1.0.6/backend/umax_pp_low.c:699: relocation > truncated to fit: R_PPC_REL24 inb > collect2: ld returned 1 exit status > make[1]: *** [umax_pp] Error 1 > make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/michthom/sane-backends-1.0.6/tools' > make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 I'm assuming that this has something to do with the bug report posted here: > From: Michael Weber (micha...@debian.org) > Subject: Bug#114579: sane-backends_1.0.5-3(unstable): build failure on powerpc > Newsgroups: debian.bugs.dist > Date: 2001-10-05 11:49:09 PST > > http://groups.google.com/groups?q=sane+umax_pp_low&hl=en&scoring=d&rnum=3&selm > =l4zo753o25.fsf%40seti.org Is there any way to disable the umax backend build so I can see if the microtek2 backend in 1.06 fixes my problem? Thanks for any help you can give me.
