I know it's bad form to answer your own guestions, but in case anybody<br>
|
|
else is going this route I wanted to make a post saying that I got this<br>
|
|
set-up working under Linux 2.0.36 and SANE 1.0. Here are some of the<br>
|
|
(obvious in hindsight) things I needed to figure out to get it working. <br>
|
|
(If anybody knows a more elegant way to do this, let me know.)<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
-Using the SANE RPM from contrib.redhat.com, I had to make sure that<br>
|
|
/etc/sane.d/epson.conf had the parallel port number ("0x0378") instead<br>
|
|
of /dev/scanner. (This seems to contradict the sane-epson man page,<br>
|
|
which says that the "device name is fixed to /dev/scanner".)<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
-Make sure that parallel support is compiled into the kernel and not a<br>
|
|
module. If it is compiled in as a module, manually load the module<br>
|
|
before starting the scanner. (The scanner wouldn't even start when the<br>
|
|
parallel cable was connected unless I ran insmod lp.o first.)<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
-I had to make sure that the BIOS on my FIC VA-503+ motherboard was<br>
|
|
configured so that the parallel port was in EPP/SPP mode and not the<br>
|
|
default SPP mode. (Otherwise, SANE would die complaining about not<br>
|
|
having a bidirectional parallel port.) <br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
I was very impressed with what I could get done with this scanner using<br>
|
|
xscanimage. Many thanks to the developers! And many thanks to my<br>
|
|
mother--this was the best $10 she ever spent at a garage sale!<br>
