Hi list!
I am setting up *Backstreet Ruby* the multi-seat Linux option on woody. Had to recompile X 4.3.0: works great...
Have a problem with xsane. On woody it's version 0.84-2. When doing any scanning the colors look extremely weird, sort of like a color negative.
Googling got me no closer.
I am thinking of compiling the 0.92 tarball and seeing what that does.
I run the 0.91-6 version on sarge and that looks great.
Anybody been here?
Thanks.
Hugo.
I know you people have been there, but anyway... I also have been there: http://home.planet.nl/~woerk095/epson1250.html
But... I didn't say "woody" there and I don't remember under what circumstances and where I did that. Argument for the sysadmin db!
I installed xsane 0.92
Needs libsane-dev + libjpeg62-dev + libusb from tarball.
./configure keeps on giving a confusing message about needing sane-dev... But you have that. So check the configure.log, that will whisper: -lusb not found... etc.
Still looks the same: is not xsane.
Then installed the sane backend latest tarball: still looked the same!
Reading its docs I saw a note about being root...
That works! If you run xsane 0.92 as root all the colors look normal...
Question: would that also be true of the original xsane?
We leave it as an exercize for the students... ;-)
