Hello,

Stef, I think you are absolutely right with your diagnostic that the 
genesys driver (written for gl646) fails with gl841 because the 
registers of the gl841 are different to the regs from gl646.

So I've shortly compared the gl841 with the gl646. The result is in the 
attached file.

As far as I am concerned, I think we mainly have to adapt the functions 
handling the scanner controler registers (e.g. genesys_init_registers). 
I think we can use the whole file genesys.c and the register/memory 
write/read functions for a gl841 driver, but I don't have the overview 
to decide this.

As I don't know the best way to support the gl841 controller without the 
development of parts, that are equal to gl646, I'd be glad to get some 
suggestions on this subject.  

Thanks for your suggestions

    Philipp

This is a comparison of between the scanner controllers GL841 and GL646.
The bases of this comparision are the datasheets of this controllers.
(http://www.genesyslogic.com/econtents/product02.asp?SN=47&amp;minicidx=3&amp;lastcidx=18 and http://www.genesyslogic.com/econtents/product02.asp?SN=48&amp;minicidx=3&amp;lastcidx=18)

Attention: This comparison isn't complete at all !  

analogue frontend:

GL646 has a built-in 16-bit AFE. GL841 needs an external AFE. In lide50, it
is reported to be WM8199CDS (see http://www.wolfsonmicro.com/products/digital_imaging/WM8199/)

PC interface:

GL646 has a built-in USB 1.1 interface. Optional there is an extern USB 2.0 or
IEEE 1394 interface controller.
The only interface in the GL841 is the built-in USB 2.0 controller.

Z1MOD and Z2MOD are 21 bit big instead of 18 bit on the gl646. In the gl841, the Z1MOD[20:16] and ZIMOD[20:16] bits are next to the other Z1MOD and Z2MOD bits. 
In the gl646 Z1MOD[18:16] and Z2MOD[18:16] bits are behind the GPO bits in register
0x6C. 
So the differences after 0x5F are enourmous. gl841 has 0x87 registers wheras
gl646 has only 0x71 registers. Please read the datasheets to get the detailed
differences.
