Hi,

There is now a SANE backend for GT-6801 and GT-6816 based scanners.
It's based Sergey Vlasov's gt68xx driver. Actually, he did all the
hard work and I only added the SANE interface.

It's the first release and so it's VERY alpha:
http://www.meier-geinitz.de/sane/gt68xx-backend/

It intends to support the following scanners:

Mustek BearPaw 1200 CU
Mustek BearPaw 2400 CU
Mustek ScanExpress 1200 UB Plus
Mustek BearPaw 1200 TA
Mustek BearPaw 2400 TA
Mustek BearPaw 2400 TA Plus

Only the first one is tested and somewhat works.

Maybe other scanners that use one of the GT chips can be supported,
too.

Please test and send bug and success reports.

Happy scanning,

  Henning
