Dear listmembers, currently I am trying to force openSUSE 11.1 to cooperate again correctly with SCSI-scanners. Therefore my call: whoever is willing and whoever owns a SCSI scanner / is using a SCSI scanner (even better if you own different ones) please: lshal > out and send that to me. Whoever thinks he is supplying too much private information (_seriously_ I am not planning anything bad :-) ) may delete everything what has nothing to do with a scanner. I am really only interested in the scanner as such. The corresponding part of "out" looks as follows on my side: udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pci_9004_8178_scsi_host_scsi_device_lun0_0' info.parent = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pci_9004_8178_scsi_host' (string) info.product = 'SCSI Device' (string) info.subsystem = 'scsi' (string) info.udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pci_9004_8178_scsi_host_scsi_device_lun0_0' (string) linux.hotplug_type = 2 (0x2) (int) linux.subsystem = 'scsi' (string) linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.4/0000:03:05.0/host6/target6:0:6/6:0:6:0' (string) scsi.bus = 0 (0x0) (int) scsi.host = 6 (0x6) (int) scsi.lun = 0 (0x0) (int) scsi.model = 'C7670A' (string) scsi.target = 6 (0x6) (int) scsi.type = 'processor' (string) scsi.vendor = 'HP' (string) udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pci_9004_8178_scsi_host_scsi_device_lun0_0_scsi_generic' access_control.file = '/dev/sg2' (string) access_control.type = 'scanner' (string) info.callouts.add = {'hal-acl-tool --add-device'} (string list) info.callouts.remove = {'hal-acl-tool --remove-device'} (string list) info.capabilities = {'scsi_generic', 'scanner', 'access_control'} (string list) info.category = 'scsi_generic' (string) info.parent = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pci_9004_8178_scsi_host_scsi_device_lun0_0' (string) info.product = 'SCSI Generic Interface' (string) info.subsystem = 'scsi_generic' (string) info.udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pci_9004_8178_scsi_host_scsi_device_lun0_0_scsi_generic' (string) linux.device_file = '/dev/sg2' (string) linux.hotplug_type = 2 (0x2) (int) linux.subsystem = 'scsi_generic' (string) linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.4/0000:03:05.0/host6/target6:0:6/6:0:6:0/scsi_generic/sg2' (strin scsi_generic.device = '/dev/sg2' (string) Of real interest for me are only two lines here: "scsi.type", on my side the entry "processor", I expect to see "scanner" in most cases. Whoever finds another "processor" with a model name that differs from mine (scsi.model) or who owns a scanner that announces himself neither as "scanner" nor as "processor" is of greatest interest for me. For those specific devices exceptions have to be inserted into the corresponding file. Thank you very much in advance, please send the data via email to dieter<dot>jurzitza<at>t<dash>online<dot>de P.S. Nothing to be gained here, I've got nothing to offer but a thank you :-) Till then, Dieter -- ----------------------------------------------------------- | \ /\_/\ | | ~x~ |/-----\ / \ /- \_/ ^^__ _ / _ ____ / <°°__ \- \_/ | |/ | | || || _| _| _| _| if you really want to see the pictures above - use some font with constant spacing like courier! :-) ----------------------------------------------------------- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
