Maybe their > authors can talk about that. Usually a scanner with a Firewire or IEEE-1394 interface implements the SBP-2 protocol, which emulates SCSI over IEEE-1394. With an=20 SBP-2 device, there is no need for an extra driver, the device will look and work like a SCSI device. The SBP-2 driver will install a virtual SCSI controller, and from there on the device can be accesses by any application that supports SCSI devices. To get a IEEE-1394 scanner working, you load three modules: ieee1394, ohci1394 (or whatever driver your system requires for your controller) and sbp2.=20 Karl Heinz --=20 Karl Heinz Kremer [email protected] PGP Key at http://www.khk.net/download/khk.asc EPSON Sane Backend: http://www.khk.net --UugvWAfsgieZRqgk Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE9X4w4xejv3RfKrhsRAvL4AJ94kg/U/3t9xAsRby77ToBzpkelqgCfU849 NfzYWerRhctYXCoHi5toP7Y= =fMmu -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --UugvWAfsgieZRqgk--
