Hello, I have a Cannon Lide 35 scanner and I am trying to make it work under linux. I know that the scanner is not yet supported. I have downloaded latest CVS snapshot of the experimental backend Genesys, compiled it according to the instructions and run. The sane-find-scanner gives me:
... found USB scanner (vendor=0x04a9 [Canon], product=0x2213 [CanoScan], chip=GL841) at libusb:004:003 # Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be supported by # SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage. ... Note that the libusb:00x:00y changes. When I try scanimage I get: [stevko@stevko bin]$ scanimage -d genesys [genesys] WARNING: Your scanner is not fully supported or at least [genesys] had only limited testing. Please be careful and [genesys] report any failure/success to [genesys] henn...@meier-geinitz.de. Please provide as many [genesys] details as possible, e.g. the exact name of your [genesys] scanner and what does (not) work. scanimage: open of device genesys failed: Error during device I/O and in the /var/log/messages I have: May 3 22:02:48 stevko kernel: usb 4-1: scanimage timed out on ep2out May 3 22:02:48 stevko kernel: usb 4-1: usbfs: USBDEVFS_BULK failed ep 0x2 len 6 ret -110 What do you think should be wrong with my system? Is there someting I have to configure/check? What more information I should provide or what I should try to change in sources and see what happens? Thanks for any hints and pointers, Best regards, Stefan Urbanek -- http://stefan.agentfarms.net First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win. - Mahatma Gandhi
