Hi,
i am writing my own little scanner button handling which works without the problem.
I am trying to attach the scanner (via USB) to a headles system. So in the
end i 'd like to start the scanner button program via udev and let it
die once the user turns off the scanner.
I would have expected sane_control_option to return an error message once
the scanner gets turned off (disconnected) but it still returns
0 aka SANE_STATUS_GOOD which is astonishing..
Whats the proposed way to detect a disconnected scanner? Should i reopen the scanner
on every 1 sec polling interval?!?
