Hello, I need your help. I have upgraded my system from SuSE 8.2 to 9.1. Now I need for my Plustek parallelport-scanner the package sane-backends-2004-06-14.tar.gz. I have installed it correctly, so I mean. But my scanner can't be dectected. xsane shows errors and scanimage -L tells me "No scanners were identified".
Shortly after the installation of the package and after making ./MakeModule.sh tells me dmesg parport0: PC-style at 0x378 (0x778) [PCSPP,TRISTATE] parport0: irq 7 detected ... pt_drv: no version for "struct_module" found: kernel tainted. ********************************************* pt_drv: init_module() pt_drv : driver version 0.43-3 .... MiscGetModelName - id = 15 pt_drv0: 9636T/12000T found on port 0x0378 pt_drv0: Lamp-Timer set to 180 seconds. pt_drv0: WarmUp period set to 30 seconds. pt_drv0: Lamp untouched on driver unload. Lamp-Timer started! pt_drv : init done, 1 device(s) found And the lamp at my scanner shutdown after 180s But I can't use the scanner which xsane or scanimage -L. After a reboot dmesg tells me only parport0: PC-style at 0x378 (0x778) [PCSPP,TRISTATE] parport0: irq 7 detected And lsmod shows me, pt_drv0 is no loaded. If I make now modprobe pt_drv I can see: Module Size Used by pt_drv 115796 0 ... parport_pc 35264 3 ppa 11656 0 parport 37704 4 pt_drv,lp,parport_pc,ppa And the lamp of the scanner is burning for 180s. But xsane and scanimage -L aren't possible. Can somebody tell, what I have to do, so pt_drv is correctly loaded at the booting and the scanner can use the devices? Perhaps I have forgotten something in the config-files. So, you can see the content of /etc/sane.d/plustek_pp.conf: ... #[direct] #device 0x378 # # leave the default values as specified in /etc/modules.conf # #option warmup -1 #option lOffOnEnd -1 #option lampOff -1 # model override switch, mostly for cosmetic changes, if the autodetection # does not work or could not work correctly #option mov 7 # # example for accessing the scanner via libieee1284 # #[direct] #device parport0 # # example for accessing the scanner via the kernel module # [kernel] device /dev/pt_drv option warmup -1 option lOffOnEnd -1 option lampOff -1 .... /etc/sane.d/dll.conf: ... pint plustek plustek_pp #pnm ... and /etc/modules.conf: alias char-major-40 pt_drv pre-install pt_drv modprobe -k parport options pt_drv lampoff=180 warmup=15 port=0x378 lOffonEnd=0 mov=0 slowIO=1 I hope somebody can help me at the solution of that problem. Thank you! Andreas
