[sane-devel] Sane on Linux Sparc...

[Tomislav Renic]

Sorry about the lack of details.  I realized after I sent the email that I
should have been a bit more explicit with my system details.  Here's what
I've got:

Sun Ultra 10 with 300 MHz Ultrasparc IIi
Adaptec AHA2940UW Controller at SCSI-ID=7
UMAX S6E scanner on SCSI-ID=5
Debian Linux with kernel 2.4.7 using loadable modules for aha7xxx.o and sg.o
sane version 1.0.5 (I tried both the debian precompiled packages and rolling
my own...same problem)
Shared libraries are indeed supported
I could use xscanimage if I sane could recognize the scanner.

Here's the debug output from the mustek backend:
debian:~# SANE_DEBUG_MUSTEK=4 scanimage -L
[sanei_debug] Setting debug level of mustek to 4.
[mustek] SANE mustek backend version 1.0 build 107 from sane-backends-1.0.5

No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different,
check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the
sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation
which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages).
[mustek] sane_exit

Thanks for the help and feel free to ask anything you want...

There hasn't been any report at all until now as far as I know. Could
you please give some more details: SANE version, Linux version,
compiler + version, are shared libraries supported and does dynamic
loading (over the dll backend) work, can you use xscanimage? That's
for our supported platforms page:

It looks like the response from the scanner couldn't be understood by
sanei_scsi.c. I don't know too much about this code, maybe there are
endian or 32/64 bit issues?

Can you please try to run

SANE_DEBUG_MUSTEK=4 scanimage -L

And send the output to the list? The mustek backend contains an
inquiry output, so we should be able to see what's happening.

Bye,
