To: <sane-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org> Subject: Re: [sane-devel] Sane and HAL .. That's a problem with the SCSI bus: At least its simple variants, as used by scanners, are not hotplugging-aware, so there is no way to detect if a device is powered on or off. (BTW, better avoid to (dis-)connect SCSI devices while any device on the bus is powered on: this can destroy the driver transistors, no joke. And _never_ do this with NCR5380 SCSI bus chips. For these chips, fortunately quite old ones and today not often found in use, it is a safe bet that they are broken after hotplugging ;) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
