The problem of the missing 1600 dpi resolution is solved in the CVS=20
version. I also removed the non-working 900 and 1200 dpi resolutions=20
and added a 800 dpi resolution instead which was reported to work. It=20
seems however there are still problems with high resolutions when=20
scanning slides.
