[sane-devel] Kodak i1210 Plus Scanner on FreeBSD 9.3 (SANE 1.0.23)

[m. allan noah]

It seems unlikely that you will get Kodak's Linux binaries to run
inside your FreeBSD jail, and the scanner is not supported by
sane-backends. You might try to ask Kodak for help, or at least make
them aware that there are other platforms out there...
