Help, ideas, testing and comments are welcome.


Which pkgsrc release is it built with?  (and does /usr/Makefile match
it?)  That's a question I could answer myself once I try it, I
suppose.


It's built using DragonFly master and pkgsrc-current as of July 18.

Stéphane,

thanks for the hints. I will try it out with my own scanner.

I should perhaps also remove uscanner from the kernel config I use then  
(if someone needs it, they can still kldload it).

Yeah, installable, just like our normal ISO/IMG with some more packages  
(the ones I've listed).


And yes, so far it's x86_64 only. I'll see what I can do about building an  
i386 one.

I'm looking forward for i386 version.

It would save me a lot of time, since XFCE4 or PEKWM + web browser 
(firefox/midori/w3m)  libreoffice, gnome-commander and samba is all I need for 
a good working DFBSD machine.

Maybe remove it from the kernel and add it by default in 
/boot/loader.conf, in case most scanners works with uscanner. I 
personally made it the default behavior for ulpt, ikbd, ums, uhid and 
uscanner, to avoid constant recompiles:


uhid_load=NO
ukbd_load=NO (my HP mouse is confused with this one, I'm using a PS/2 
keyboard anyway)

ulpt_load=NO
ums_load=YES
uscanner_load=NO
