[sane-devel] supported kernels of cvs

2005-12-09 Thread Stefan Leichter
Hello all,

can someone give an "official" statement about the supported kernel versions 
for the current cvs.

All i found about this is: "CVS is usually only going to work on recent linux 
kernels" (http://linuxtv.org/v4lwiki/index.php/How_to_build_from_CVS). But 
what is a recent kernel?

Is 2.4.32 a recent one?

Background: I'm trying to get a Leadtek WinFast TV2000XP Expert (cx88) running 
on a 2.4 kernel.

Bye Stefan


[sane-devel] usbsnoop2libusb.pl problem

2006-01-28 Thread Stefan Leichter
Hello,

i decided to have a look what might be needed to get my MD 90070 running with 
sane. But i'm stuck at the very first steps.

according to http://www.meier-geinitz.de/sane/misc/develop.html i followed the 
link of USB Snoopy which gave me sniffusb-0.13.zip in the end. Also i 
downloaded usbsnoop2libusb.pl mentioned on Hennings page. 

After doing some logfile, i started feeding the first logfile to the 
usbsnoop2libusb.pl (what is the correct command line for this?), but i get 
lots of errors and no real C code. The error are:
- Use of uninitialized value in numeric eq (==) at /home/sle/bin/
usbsnoop2libusb.pl line 58, <> line 42
- Use of uninitialized value in hex at /home/sle/bin/usbsnoop2libusb.pl line 
165, <> line 1615
- Use of uninitialized value in hash element at /home/sle/bin/
usbsnoop2libusb.pl line 171, <> line 1615
- Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at /home/sle/bin/
usbsnoop2libusb.pl line 173, <> line 1615
- can't find ""

i get the first error many times with different line numbers at the end. The 
incomplete C code looks like,

ret = usb_get_descriptor(devh, 0x1, 0x0, buf, 0x012
00120.00466763  );

Without knowing what usb_get_descriptor does, there are at least missing some 
commas.

I have also downloaded SnoopyPro, but its output is in an binary format and i 
thing this is not the right format for usbsnoop2libusb.pl.

So my question is what are the right tools to spy the usb communation and for 
processing the logfiles?

[sane-devel] mustek_usb2 & Tevion 90070

2007-01-04 Thread Stefan Leichter
Hello,

i tried to make the tevion 90070 working with the mustek_usb2 backend. 
Therefore i patched Prodict and vendor id in mustek_usb2_asic.c .

This made scanimage -L working.

device `v4l:/dev/video0' is a Noname Leadtek Winfast 2000XP Expert virtual 
device
device `mustek_usb2:libusb:001:002' is a Mustek BearPaw 2448 TA Pro flatbed 
scanner

Note: the name was not patched.

Testing scanimage -d mustek_usb2:libusb:001:002 i get an error at dram testing 
(see attached logfile).

Now i'm looking for some hint's how to go on from here. 

I can do usb logfiles on a win2k box, but how do i "compare" them with the 
stuff send from the  mustek_usb2 backend?

Thanks for help
Bye Stefan

 autoreconf regenerates aclocal.m4. please try using autoconf
 instead, it should work.

[sane-devel] Medion MD90090 Scanner

Hello,

accoreding to 
http://www.sane-project.org/lists/sane-mfgs-cvs.html#Z-MEDION-LIFETEC-TEVION-CYTRON
 
and http://www.sane-project.org/unsupported/tevion-md90070.html yor scanner 
should be the same as my Tevion MD 90070. 

I currently trying to integrate support for this scanner into the mustek_usb2 
backend. This is the good new.

The bad new is that i have now ask two time for help on the sane-devel mailing 
list and i did not any response (maybe this is the reason why the list of 
unsupported scanners is so long). 

So the chances are very low to get support for these scanners into the next 
release of sane.

Really? Looks like we have a different understanding of the english language. 

I allways tried hard to tell you that i will do the modification myself if 
someone would tell me how to continue from the state where i have been. Looks 
like iI was not suiccessful so far

I'm a newbe and i don't get paid for working on OSsoftware. Therefore i like 
to do the stuff in an efficient way or leave it as it is. I don't like to 
spend ages.

I have no idea if it is enough to switch on some sane logging and compare the 
output wiith the logs from windows, or is there a need do disassemble the 
scanner to get a knowledge of the electrical components. Will the programmers 
manual of the ASIC be enough or are the schematics needed...

This are informations i expected to get from some of the experienced members 
of this list ..

[sane-devel] Tevion MD 90070

2006-10-08 Thread Stefan Leichter
Hello,

i have a Tevion MD 90070 scanner and like to use in with my Linux box (Debian 
Etch). Reading sane-project.org i found the best bet is to integrate support 
for the scanner into the mustek_usb2 backend.

if your are willing to get this scanner supported in sane there are two 
options:

1. Someone gives me a detailed step by step instruction list how to integrate 
the scanner into the backend or 
2. Someone else is doing the implementation and asks me about the required 
information and for testing.

Some infos about me:
- i have some knowledge in c programming 
- a windows 2000 box is close to my linux box, so i can do make usb (1.1) logs 
if required
- i have not done any usb programming
