[sane-devel] missing PFU alias QUATO

[Thomas Olbrich]

Allan, how can I let you know infos for further debugging? Where do I 
find the file you want me to change? I have no compiling software. Can 
I do it in a text editor?

I'm sorry not to have any compiling or programming skills. Neither 
knowledge nor tools. However, I'll do my best to answer your questions.

I was googling for FUJITSU + PFU. Obviously PFU was bought by FUJITSU. 
I did not find any scanner on their websites which looks any similar 
to my PFU (which is from 1998). Did you, Allan?

What can I do next?
