I notice it with great interest, & noted the ports/graphics/hpscan/work/README, ( my 2 FreeBSD systems, have an Adaptec 1542B, & a 1542A). I'd like to buy a flatbed scanner, did you buy yours in Germany, or by mail order < US ? Any tips to those yet to put their toe in the water ? (Good & bad models, Prices, Resolution etc ?) I guess I must find a scanner faq, but can't remember the domain name for that rtfm.whatever site. Julian Muenchen, Germany -- Julian H. Stacey jhs@freebsd.org http://www.freebsd.org/~jhs/
