[Canonscanner-devel] D646U status

[Tim T. <tim...@pa...>]

Hi there,

I've got a Canon D646Uex scanner, and I'm keen to have a try at writing
a driver for it.

I initially thought it was a LM9832 based scanner, but running the
plustek driver after recompiling it with the usb device numbers of the
646U gives:
....
[plustek] usbDev_open(auto,)
[plustek] Autodetection...
[plustek] Found device at >/dev/usbscanner0<
[plustek] Device >/dev/usbscanner< ignoring
[plustek] Device >/dev/usb/scanner0< ignoring
[plustek] Vendor ID=0x04A9, Product ID=0x220B
[plustek] usbio_DetectLM983x
[plustek] UIO error
[plustek] This is not a LM9831 or LM9832 chip based scanner.
[plustek] open failed: -1
[plustek] sane_get_devices (0xbffff8b8, 0)
....

So maybe it's not :(

I see you guys have canon-test-D646U in your ct stuff, so I was
wondering who was playing with it, and how far they got?

I've posted on the plustek list, but now it looks like it may not be a
LM9832, they can't really help.

Any ideas, or other places to look?

Cheers,

Tim.
