Hi, the 1240 is supported by the backend, but there are several issues with FreeBSD... There are some reports, that using the libusb does not work correctly, there's also a description for making a CanoScan device work with FreeBSD 4.8: http://gja.space4me.com/things/CanoScan_LiDE20_FreeBSD.html
Maybe this helps... Ciao, Gerhard BTW: The LM9833 and the LM9832 are using the same internal version... On Monday 09 February 2004 21:01, Doug Carter wrote: > Allan, > > > 1.
