agfa snapscan e40 scanner

[stuffit]

hi

the above scanner wasn't picked up using the graphics/scanning option in the menu

for it to work you need to:

sane-find-scanner

or

cat /proc/bus/usb/devices

this will give you a set of info. look for v=VVVV and p=PPPP

then download the firmware form here: http://www.vaxz.ru/driver/skaner/DRIVERS/

then in /etc/scan.d/snapscan.conf

add firmware /path/to/firmware.bin

then modprobe scanner v=0xVVVV and p=0xPPPP (substituing the info you got above)

and it should work using the menu now. add it to /etc/modules.conf as

options scanner vendor=0xVVVV product=0xPPPP
