I got a simple USB slide film scanner (Medion MD 86774). This USB
attached scanner is supposed to work in Linux with v4l, recognized as a
camera device.

I'm running 11.0-CURRENT #3 r260189: Thu Jan  2 13:20:15 CET 2014
amd64, having installed ports graphics/sane-backends,
graphics/xsane.

Attaching the scanner to the USB bus makes the kernel giving this
report:

ugen7.6: <Salix Corp.> at usbus7

Issuing the command usbconfig as shown below reveals

usbconfig -u 7 -a 6 dump_device_desc
ugen7.6: <USB Scanner 5MP Salix Corp.> at usbus7, cfg=3D0 md=3DHOST
spd=3DHIGH (480Mbps) pwr=3DON (500mA)

  bLength =3D 0x0012=20
  bDescriptorType =3D 0x0001=20
  bcdUSB =3D 0x0200=20
  bDeviceClass =3D 0x00ef=20
  bDeviceSubClass =3D 0x0002=20
  bDeviceProtocol =3D 0x0001=20
  bMaxPacketSize0 =3D 0x0040=20
  idVendor =3D 0x115b=20
  idProduct =3D 0x3150=20
  bcdDevice =3D 0x0028=20
  iManufacturer =3D 0x0001  <Salix Corp.>
  iProduct =3D 0x0002  <USB Scanner 5MP>
  iSerialNumber =3D 0x0000  <no string>
  bNumConfigurations =3D 0x0001


Well, I'd like to do some experiments and I do not know where to start.
In /usr/local/etc/sane.d/ I created a new file called "medion.conf"
containing=20

usb 0x115b  0x3150

to "fake" a supported device, but xsane doesn't recognize the device at
all.=20

It may sound naiv, but can someone tell me how to use this scanner
device as a v4l device as it is recognized in Ubuntu 13 (kernel 3.2)?

Is there a "generic" way to provide essential informations to the SANE
backend for a new device?=20

Please CC me. I'm not subscribing the list.


Thanks in advance,
Oliver
