[sane-devel] test.conf not set for Twain Sane Interface

Sat Jan 28 02:02:48 UTC 2012

I am using scanimage -b gives nearly endless amount of output test files.

I am on Macosx Lion with latest ellert Sane apps and driver

However the settings I put in test.conf seem not to stick, when I see the scanner selection come up, I still see grey and not the color setting I specified in the test.conf

Also the test image does not change to color after changing in test.conf to color image.

In Apple Image Capture I see the test device not show up. 
However using scanimage -d test:0 > test.pnm shows me the settings are ok, it seems just the frontent when I interface with morena sane/twain does not stick.

This is in accord on what I see here:

So my questions to sum it up:
* how do I see in the test.conf the adf to stick?
* how do I make my frontend do what it set the frontent to or rely on my test.conf, see screenshot for test image

Thanks,
Wolfgang
