I was wondering if everybody else using scanners really uses flag CONFIG_USB_DYNAMIC_MINORS, because for me it does not work at all without it. Never tied with that flag on, commented to be EXPERIMENTAL. It seems to be some kind of problem with the minor sometimes used starting from 0 and sometimes from SCN_BASE_MNR. The driver in 2.4.20-pre10 works, maybe comparing to that helps you. There is at least one missing part in the patch however: now devfs minor is wrong (SCN_BASE_MNR needs not to be added anymore). ---- Kari Hämeenaho ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, use the last form field at: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-usb-devel
