I've got a SANE build for Digital Unix and I've got an HP6100C SCSI
scanner. I want to test SANE on Digital Unix because it doesn't look like
anyone has done so since 0.97 where it was claimed that the user-level
SCSI support needs debugging.
I'm wondering now how I tell SANE where to find the scanner. My system has
a /dev/cam device, and I see from sanei_scsi.c that for SCSI/CAM
sanei_scsi_open expects a device string of the form "bNtNlN" where the N's
are bus, target and lun, and opens /dev/cam. The trouble is that I can't
see where I have to specify the bus/target/lun string. For example the
sane-hp man page says:
"This backend expects device names of the form:
special
Where special is the UNIX path-name for the special device
that corresponds to the scanner.
Is this just a bug in the man page, and should I be putting b0t2l0 or
whatever in the hp.conf file?
Also, can anyone tell me how buggy the user-level scsi interface is?
I.e does it trash disks? What sort of bugs should I expect?
