[sane-devel] PIL and Sane

2002-09-01 Thread abel deuring
Hi all, I'm trying to use the Sane module from PIL (Python Imaging Library; http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/ ) After some fights with the installation, I can start a scan, but the method snap() segfaults. As far as I understand it, the device object does not allocate the buffer that sto

[sane-devel] Scanner recomendation
