[sane-devel] Genius HR6X Slim

I would like to test if this scaner works with the genesys backend but had
some trouble.

udev won't make a device file so I made a rule:
<10-udev.rules>
# Scanner Genius
BUS=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0458", SYSFS{idProduct}=="2019", NAME="%k",
SYMLINK="custom/scanner", OWNER="root", GROUP="users",  MODE="755"


I would like to get this scanner working if possible.  It's been there
dusting since I changed all my sistems to GNU/Linux about 2 years ago so
It's about time to get it working. The genesys backend supports the chip so
maybe it's just bad configuration.

I'm willing to make tests with it so please tell me if there's something I
can do.

Thanks.

Here's the info.

 # sane-find-scanner

  # sane-find-scanner will now attempt to detect your scanner. If the
  # result is different from what you expected, first make sure your
  # scanner is powered up and properly connected to your computer.

  # No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure
that
  # you have loaded a kernel SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter.

  # Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be supported
by
  # SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage.

  # Not checking for parallel port scanners.

  # Most Scanners connected to the parallel port or other proprietary ports
  # can't be detected by this program.
