Well, no one asked for it before, I suppose.

The patch can be even smaller. Just add this line :

    {"SNAPSCAN 1236U",          SNAPSCAN1236S},

And remove all the rest (no need to define two different models since
they probably have the same protocol).

I will apply it in the CVS on sourceforge.

Thanks for the report.
