The *only* scanners which work under FreeBSD at this time are the HP scanners. I've got an HP 3C working, and J'org had an older model working at his site. I'm pretty sure it should also work with the HP 4C as well. > I would like to hear about positive or negative experiences, also with > reference to the use of the scanner on the same SCSI bus as the HD or > other peripherals. It's on the same bus as my HD, but you *must* make sure to get good SCSI cables or you'll have problems. Nate
