Re: Re: Problem with Canon FS4000US film scanner and VueScan on Wheezy
Hi Boudewijn,
this is getting a bit old, but I recently moved to Debian Stretch, and gave
a little more time to this problem. I noticed that udev raises an error saying
"... was not an MTP device", and after some search on the net I managed to make
VueScan work by adding a specific udev rule :
root@debian:~# cat /etc/udev/rules.d/69-FS4000US-MTP.rules
ATTR{idVendor}=="04a9", ATTR{idProduct}=="3042", SYMLINK+="libmtp-%k",
MODE="660", GROUP="scanner", ENV{ID_MTP_DEVICE}="1", ENV{ID_MEDIA_PLAYER}="1",
TAG+="uaccess"
root@debian:~#
Just in case it would help.
Best regards,
Jean-François

Re: Re: Problem with Canon FS4000US film scanner and VueScan on Wheezy
Hi Boudewijn, thanks for your answer. Unfortunately no, I didn't manage solve my problem. The only solution I found from VueScan or other sources was to get (or write) a custom driver. And indeed my PC does not have an SCSI interface. But I've found that there are PCI extension cards for plugging SCSI devices. This could be the solution, maybe I will try to explore that.

Problem with Canon FS4000US film scanner and VueScan on Wheezy
Hello, I am trying to find some help for using a (rather old) Canon FS4000US film scanner with VueScan. Here is my problem : I am running Debian Wheezy (32 bits), and I have been using the scanner for quite a while under previous Debian versions. Now VueScan doesn't detect the scanner any more, it says No scanner was found attached to your computer. I suppose the problem appeared when I upgraded from Squeeze to Wheezy (I'm not 100% sure since I don't use the scanner very often, but what else could it be ?) VueScan works OK with my HP Photosmart b109a printer/scanner, and the Canon works OK with the Windows version of VueScan ... I didn't find anything useful in the group archive (or on the Net). Someone suggested that I should try to find an open source driver, but I could't find one, and that wouldn't explain why everything worked on Squeeze. Below are some logs for dmesg and lsusb after starting, stopping, and restarting the scanner. Any help would be appreciated.
