Hi,<br>
I have a Scanport SQ4800. According to the manufacturer,<br>
this is a private labelled version of the Microtek<br>
Scanmaker E3. Works fine in Windows with the crappy SCSI<br>
card that came with it.<br>
<p>
To use it with Red Hat Linux 6, I installed an Initio 9100a, <br>
added the right modprobe line to /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit, and <br>
now /proc/scsi/scsi says<br>
Attached devices:<br>
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 06 Lun: 00<br>
Vendor: N-TEK Model: NuScan II Rev: 1.60<br>
Type: Scanner ANSI SCSI revision: 03 <br>
<p>
Now, I have no idea how SCSI works on Linux, but I gather than<br>
one of /dev/sga ... /dev/sgh will correspond to the scanner.<br>
Don't know which one.<br>
<p>
I saw a utility 'scsi_info' that will open both a given<br>
/dev/sg? entry and /proc/scsi, and output info about what<br>
SCSI ID the device corresponds to. I ran that as root on each of<br>
the /dev/sg? entries, and got<br>
open() failed: Permission denied<br>
on /dev/sga, even after chmod 644 /dev/sga, and<br>
open() failed: Device not configured <br>
on the others. This doesn't seem right.<br>
<p>
I also tried making /dev/scanner be a symbolic link to<br>
/dev/sgg, creating a group 'scanner', setting it to group 'scanner',<br>
and setting it group writable (as hinted at in the SANE docs)<br>
and tried 'scanimage', but no joy; no SANE devices were found.<br>
<p>
Heeelllppp...<br>
Thanks,<br>
Dan<br>
