Dear Michael,<br>
<p>
<i>&gt; The xxxP versions are parallel-port versions,</i><br>
I already recognized it, but that was after I sent my mail ;-) !<br>
<p>
<i>&gt; There is someone considering</i><br>
<i>&gt; working on figuring out whether the xxxP versions use a standard</i><br>
<i>&gt; parallel-to-SCSI converter that could be supported by the Linux</i><br>
<i>&gt; SCSI layer, but that kind of support, if it ever does exist, is</i><br>
<i>&gt; probably a long way off still.</i><br>
I think a scsi-to-parallel driver already exists under linux<br>
(I think I read about a parallel ZIP drive working with linux).<br>
<p>
Does anybody know if thats right and how that works? Perhaps<br>
thats a driver that does all the work and for the software it<br>
is like a scsi-device with a special name like /dev/parscsi,<br>
then it should be no (big) problem.<br>
<p>
<p>
<i>&gt; I got the latest versions of their documents recently. No obvious</i><br>
<i>&gt; changes that I can see vis-a-vis the Astra SCSI scanners, though</i><br>
<i>&gt; I haven't looked hard yet.</i><br>
Please could you mail it to me!<br>
<p>
Bye<br>
Oliver<br>
<p>
