Re: Epson Perfectionist 1250U, vender/product=0x04b8/0x010f
I wiped the sane-backends-1.0.6 tree many times tonight thinking I
wasn't unpacking it correctly since ./configure --prefix=/usr
--sysconfdir=/etc was exiting on the ltconfig call if I unpacked 40_11
into the sane-backends-1.0.6 directory first. Odd.
I finally got it to build by running ./configure before unpacking the
Plustek-40_11 to it, then running configure again. Making sure the
correct vender/product (usb 0x4b8 0x010f) was listed in
/etc/sane.d/plustek.conf, the finished product still reports via xsane
that no devices are available.
According to an strace, it does open, write and read the device without
reporting any errors, and does 10 or so assorted such operations, and
then it goes on to the next run thru the loop for a different device,
completing it all and reporting no devices available in about 300
milliseconds. And my USB mouse survives, that was killing it,
requiring a reboot to get it back before, so this is an improvement.
I even went so far as to wipe the /etc/sane.d dir, build the frontends
and re-install, which gave me far fewer example device.conf's than I had
before, and which the rpms had apparently installed. Then I fixed the
vender/product in the newly installed plustek.conf to match the above.
Here is the scanner section of a cat /proc/bus/usb/devices output, this
after adding its vendor/product to linux/drivers/usb/scanner.h: and
rebuilding the kernel, 2.4.17-pre7, then adding the options to
modules.conf and 'modprobe scanner' by hand after the reboot.

And here are a few lines from the strace of xsane.

read(6, "", 4096) = 0
close(6) = 0
munmap(0x4002c000, 4096) = 0
And the rest appears to be the next '/etc/sane.d/net.conf' query
section, so it got snipped too in the interests of bandwidth. The whole
strace file is 70 some kilobytes.
What else can I report that may be helpfull, and which I have the tools
to do?
Cheers, Gene
