I edited my microtek2.conf file :<br>
<p>
# See sane-microtek2(5) for a description of the options<br>
<p>
option dump 1<br>
option lightlid-35 on<br>
# option no-backtrack-option on<br>
scsi * * Scanner<br>
<p>
<p>
so that the 35mm lightlid device option was "on"<br>
as you see. Just uncommented that line. I turned off<br>
the scanner, plugged in the lightlid, turned it back on -- <br>
it lit up. Started xscanimage but no source option appears <br>
in xscanimage as a result of the conf file change and plugging<br>
in the device.<br>
<p>
I then tried to use scanimage manually with the scan-source <br>
option<br>
<p>
scanimage --scan-source TMA microtek2:/dev/scanner<br>
<p>
and I got an error message about the scan-source option being<br>
inactive.<br>
<p>
scanimage: attempted to set inactive option scan-source<br>
<p>
Umm, is there something else I have to do to activate this<br>
option? I thought the conf file settings were dynamic. The<br>
man page says only the dump and strip-height options are<br>
supported... sad if true, 'cause the whole reason I wanted<br>
this particular model of scanner was so that I could scan<br>
slides and negative strips.<br>
<p>
In the backend source I see the md_lightlid35 option, which<br>
seems to be used later in the scan-source option parsing...<br>
So it looks as though the lightlid-35 option is honoured,<br>
despite what the man page says... what is the status of<br>
this option? am I doing something silly, or perhaps not doing <br>
something obvious?<br>
