Description Ron 2003-04-15 16:51:12 UTC

Henning Meier-Geinitz has done some excellent work with both SANE (gt68xx
backend available in sane-backends >=1.0.10
http://www.meier-geinitz.de/sane/gt68xx-backend/) and the USB Scanner module, he
is now the maintainer. It would be very nice not to have to patch my kernel each
upgrade :).

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Patch the kernel with the latest USB scanner module source (available here:
http://www.meier-geinitz.de/kernel/)
2. emerge sane-backends
3. scan away happily

Actual Results:  
Nice pictures :)

Expected Results:  
No nice pictures :(
