<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV>Hi,</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>In order to use Fujitsu fi-4120c, I&nbsp;did the following:</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>1. Re-install Redhat 7.1</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>2. add 'options scanner vendor=0x04c5 product=0x1041' to </DIV>
<DIV>/etc/modules.conf (to my surprise, when I powered fi-4120c on, and cat </DIV>
<DIV>'proc/bus/usb/devices', the product id was 0x1041 instead of 0x0142 </DIV>
<DIV>for fi-4120c)</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>3. modprobe usb-uhci</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>4. modprobe scanner</DIV>
<DIV>then the scanner can be detected, 'Driver=usbscanner'.</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>Then I went to 'http://sane.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/anoncvs' and </DIV>
<DIV>downloaded sane-cvs-20030406.tar.gz, decompressed it and went into </DIV>
<DIV>frontend and backend and did the following:</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>1. ./configure<BR>2. make uninstall<BR>3. make<BR>4. make install</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>then I ran sane-find-scanner, it reported it found usb scanner at </DIV>
<DIV>/dev/usb/scanner0, then I ran scanimage -L, scanimage --list-devices, </DIV>
<DIV>but they could not locate the scanner.</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>I read from an article saying that the Linux kernel should be at least </DIV>
<DIV>2.4.8 to work with the latest SANE (my Redhat 7.1 is 2.4.2-2), is this </DIV>
<DIV>the reason?</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>And the product id is different (0x1041 instead of 0x1042) for </DIV>
<DIV>fi-4120c, could this be the reason?</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>Or did I do anything wrong?</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>I am considering re-installing Redhat Linux 9 and try again.</DIV>
<DIV>Is an error log necessary?</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>Thanks,</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
