Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have an HP ScanJet 5200C connected in parallel to my PC. I have gone through the SANE documentation and it claims that it DOES support HP Scanners connected in parallel. However, it requires two modules (ppscsi and epst) which are available at: ftp://ftp.torque.net/pub/ppSCSI-0.91.patch. The problem is that this patch is intended for Linux and will not work on FreeBSD. I was wondering if there was either a way to alter this patch so that it will be compatible with FreeBSD or if there were any equivalent FreeBSD patches. I would greatly appreciate any help that anyone is willing to offer me on this. -Scott Reese To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
