Thus spake Christina Johnsson (chjo@tripnet.se):
Hi all!
I'm thinking of bying a scanner. Does anyone have any special recommendations of what scanner works best with S.u.S.E. 5.3? The scanner should be "quite good", since I plan to scan photos and handmade drawings.
Thanks
Christina
I use a HP 3c scsi flatbed scanner here. I have used it with xvscan from www.tummy.com in the past. xvscan is like a part of xv or all of it but its shareware and you get scanning abilities. A cool alternative is to get SANE. SANE will fit into gimp and provide a scanning menu item in gimp for scanning suport. The 3c is rather dated; but ImO its a fine model and can be bought quite cheaply. Its served me well in NT and linux and OS/2. I think that you can integrate scanning support by using YAST. I have never done that and prefer to download and compile things myself. There is a SANE website out there but I just do not know it offhand. I have my scanner hooked to an Adaptec 2940uw, BTW. -- Michael Perry mperry@basin.com ------------------ - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
