A slightly modified Canon backend, which should avoid the segmentation
faults reported in connection with film scanners, can be picked up
by anonymous FTP from
stthd0.pc.uni-koeln.de (cd to pub!)
Has someone tried the raw scanning mode for a FS2710 and obtained a
picture containing random data? If yes, please let me know and tell
me what kind of computer you are using; there might be some misunderstanding
about the proper byte order ("bigendian" vs. "smallendian") which can
be easily corrected. Naturally, I cannot check this on my machine,
but must wait for your feedback.
