Bugzilla – Bug 106058
Scanner not supported - outdated sane libs
Last modified: 2008-06-25 09:52:23 UTC
I have a Genius Colorpage Vivid 1200 XE USB scanner which is not supported under opensuse 10 beta 2 because my scanner is not supported under SANE 1.0.15, but works well under the new 1.0.16. I compile 1.0.16 from source, copy the firmware into the right directory and also add this following entry to the libsane.usermap file (I've just reported this to the SANE guys too, so I'm sure it'll be fixed in their next release): # Genius|Colorpage Vivid 1200 XE libusbscanner 0x0003 0x0458 0x201f 0x0000 0x0000 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00000000
When SANE 1.0.16 became available it was already too late to include it in the current Suse Linux.
mass reopening all SuSE Linux bugs that are set to REMIND+LATER to change the resolution to WONTFIX (adapting to new policy)
Closing old LATER+REMIND bugs as WONTFIX - if you still plan to work on it, feel free to reopen and set to ASSIGNED. In case the report saw repeated reopen comments, it's due to bugzilla timing out on the huge request ;(
