|
|
<EM>> I have tried getting my Umax Astra600S--which, I think, is a close variant

</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> of the 1220S--working with an Adaptec 2906 for a month or so (on and off)
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> without any success despite a fair bit of help from the list. The last bit
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> of advice that I was given, but haven't been able to try yet, was to
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> actually use the ISA SCSI card that came with the scanner. Apparently there
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> are some people who got it to work. Alas no names were given. It took me a
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> while to even identify the card since Umax didn't provide *any* information
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> about it. It's a DTC 3181E, I think, though my notes are at home right now.
|
|
</EM><BR>
|

<EM>>
|

|

|

</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>>
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> I've installed the card on my system (running Mandrake 7.1) but haven't been
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> able to find any practical information as to how to setup the address
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> parameters that need to be passed to the driver. Many HOWTOs talk about the
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> need to set them "appropriate to your system" but I haven't found any docs
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> that explain how to go about determining this. Since SANE still seems to
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> require a lot of tweaking it might be useful for the list at large for
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> someone who knows how to do this to offer a mini HOWTO on this topic.
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>>
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> Also: It seems odd to me that the Umax docs for the Astra say to install the
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> AIC7800 drivers under Windows for the ISA card they ship with the scanner,
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> that the Adaptec 2906 card uses the aic78xxx driver under Linux, but that
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> the driver recommended for the ISA card under Linux is the g_NCR5380.
|
|
</EM><BR>

|
|
<EM>> I hope we can get this figured out.

<P>Hi Mark, et.al.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P>Much of my frustration has been relieved. My new
|
|
<BR>
|
|
scanner/Adaptec-card/SANE/X Scanimage work beautifully. In root. Which
|
|
<BR>
|
|
files do I chmod or chown to permit myself as user to access my
|
|
<BR>
|
|
scanner?
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P>This is just the sort of problem that bites a Win95 refugee in the ass.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
All my other graphics applications work as advertised. That is to say
|
|
<BR>
|
|
if I point and click K-> Graphics-> Cameleo, DVI Viewer, Fax Viewer,
|
|
<BR>
|
|
Fractals Generator, Gimp, Icon Editor, Image Viewer, KIllustrator,
|
|
<BR>
|
|
Paint, PS Viewer, SnapShot, TGif, Xfig, or xv, these applications boot
|
|
<BR>
|
|
up and I can use them.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P>Not X Scanimage. It works only if I log in as root and pointy/clicky.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
It does not work if I su to root and use the command xscanimage in a
|
|
<BR>
|
|
terminal.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P>I think I am close to an answer, but like Tantalus, the grapes are
|
|
<BR>
|
|
always just out of reach, and the water just below my lips.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
Unsatisfying.
|
|
<BR>
