How do you use a scanner Minolta Scan Dual III with Mandrake Linux 9.0?
Lucky me... I bought a scanner! A nice little slide and negative scanner from Minolta, 2800pdi, going for 34000 yens. I worked fine under windows, but obviously, when I plugged it into my mandrake 9.0, nothing came out: it was too new for my kernel. As usual, I did my search on google, and found this page that gave me the trick:
- check
/proc/bus/usb/devicesfor line like
and deduce the vendor and product ID.P: Vendor=0686 ProdID=400d Rev= 0.01
S: Manufacturer=MINOLTA
S: Product=DiMAGE Scan Dual3 - Add the line
into the fileoptions scanner vendor=0x#### product=0x****/etc/modules.confwhere####is the vendor ID and****the product ID. So in my case the exact line isoptions scanner vendor=0x0686 product=0x400d - restart the kernel scanner module:
rmmod scanner; modprobe scanner - stop the scanner, restart it, and it should work. In my case the
/proc/bus/usb/deviceshad a line like
(if you have "I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 3 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=usbscannerDriver=(none)", there is a problem) and the device got attached to/dev/usb/scanner0as show in/var/log/messages

As of mandrake 9.2, none of that is necessary, the scanner just works with VueScan without editing any file. On top of that VueScan is now free for home users...
