Hi all,

I own a Canon Lide 80, which also uses the gl841 chipset. I'd like to 
test it with Pierre's latest patch, but I guess since it's not listed in 
genesys_devices.c, scanimage -L won't find it.
Could somebody please give me some hints what I must do to make it being 
recognized?

Thank you so much for your work on the backend!

Regards,   Nick
