Bernd has released a .5 version of the Microtek2 backend. Check his ftpsite:<br>

<i>&gt; Hi,</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; I've just bought a Microtek ScanMaker 630 and tried to get it going</i><br>
<i>&gt; with SANE under Linux.</i><br>
<i>&gt; The distribution I use came with SANE 0.73, and had a couple of</i><br>
<i>&gt; problems with backend Microtek2 - which had already been reported on</i><br>
<i>&gt; this Mailinglist in June (seg.fault/premature crashes of scanimage,</i><br>
<i>&gt; xscanimage left X hanging,...). Also, scanned lineart pictures were</i><br>
<i>&gt; inverted (black came out as white and vice versa).</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; According to the Bernd's suggestion given then I got the improved</i><br>
<i>&gt; version of the backend: microtek2-0.3.tar.gz.</i><br>
<i>&gt; With it, things seem to work fine, at least for lineart, halftone, and</i><br>
<i>&gt; 8bit Gray.</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; However, 24bit Color doesn't quite work properly. All my scans end up</i><br>
<i>&gt; with basically only two colors: a neon green instead of black, and</i><br>
<i>&gt; pink instead of white. Except for those colors, the picture pretty</i><br>
<i>&gt; much looks like the 8bit Gray one.</i><br>
<i>&gt; I wonder whether this is a problem of SANE/the Microtek2 backend, or</i><br>
<i>&gt; more likely a defect of my scanner?</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; I haven't tried the original software due to harddisk size</i><br>
<i>&gt; restriction. In my eyes, these colors seem to be so typical, that</i><br>
<i>&gt; an expert probably knows what's wrong with it right off hand.</i><br>
<i>&gt; Since I'm new to scanning and this is my first scanner, it would be</i><br>
<i>&gt; really nice if someone could give me a hint.</i><br>
