If we have /proc/scsi/scsi, there is no problem with that, a backend<br>
|
|
(or a sanei_xxx) just reads it and looks if it supports a scanner<br>
|
|
listed there.<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
But if there is no /proc/scsi/scsi, it is not a good idea to scan<br>
|
|
all possible scsi-devices, especally if there are dozens of devices.<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
I am thinking about making a configuration tool that scans the scsi-bus<br>
|
|
for scanners and processors (hp) and generates the config files<br>
|
|
with VENDOR="XXX" MODEL="YYY" ID=Z<br>
|
|
for the backends, so the user does not have to modify the *.conf-files.<br>
|
|
That tool could set the permissions for the /dev/... devices if it<br>
|
|
is called with root-permissions.<br>
|
|
It could be done with a nice graphical frontend, where you can<br>
|
|
enable and select network-functions and SANE-servers etc.<br>
|
|
We could make a group "scanner" and edit the /etc/group file with it.<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If someone changes the hardware-configuration, he has to call the<br>
|
|
configuration-program again.<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Bye<br>
|
