Hi, I'm trying to get my HP Scanjet 5P to run on FreeBSD (using the 1.0.7 from the ports).
on bootup, the scanner is correctly identified: pass0 at tekram_trm0 bus 0 target 1 lun 0 pass0: <HP C5110A 3701> Fixed Processor SCSI-2 device pass0: 3.300MB/s transfers FreeBSD recognizes the scanner: zaphod# camcontrol devlist -v scbus0 on tekram_trm0 bus 0: <HP C5110A 3701> at scbus0 target 1 lun 0 (pass0) < > at scbus0 target -1 lun -1 () scbus-1 on xpt0 bus 0: < > at scbus-1 target -1 lun -1 (xpt0) However Sane recognizes that there is a Scanner, but not which one: sane-find-scanner: searching for SCSI scanners: sane-find-scanner: checking /dev/pass0... open ok sane-find-scanner: found SCSI disk " " at device /dev/pass0 sane-find-scanner: searching for USB scanners: sane-find-scanner: checking /dev/pass0... open ok, but vendor and product could NOT be identified sane-find-scanner: found USB scanner (UNKNOWN vendor and product) at device /dev/pass0 # `UNKNOWN vendor and product' means that there seems to be a scanner # at this device file but the vendor and product ids couldn't be # identified. Currently identification only works with Linux versions # >= 2.4.8. My configfile says: zaphod# cat /usr/local/etc/sane.d/hp.conf /dev/pass0 So - is there any way I can use my scanner in FreeBSD? I know it's suported by the backend as ist used to work perfectly in Linux. Any ideas? Thanks, Kai
