Hardware / Hardware Wiki report
« on: January 06, 2021, 02:54:20 pm »
Hi

If you have a computer and/or device working on OS/2 and ArcaOS, please let me know to add it to the Hardware Wiki right here. https://www.os2world.com/wiki/index.php/Category:Hardware

A few observation:
1.- Remember to give me the model and hardware reports with pci.exe and lsusb if it is an usb device. HardwareID are very useful to know the chipset inside things and compare other working hardware.  Here I have an article on how to use those tools.

2.- The driver and any tip and trick that you used to make it work is welcome.

3.- If you reported a laptop/desktop/mainboard before, times has changed, now we have USB 3.x drivers with ArcaOS and Paul's Uniaud updates are showing good progress. So, let me know if I need to update the USB 3 and Audio support of the reported laptops/desktop/mainboards.

4.- You may post your hardware report here or send it via e-mail too.

Thanks for your help

Regards.

Hi
  The Trap in OS2DASD is very strange - OS2DASD is a driver for getting data from discs and such (Direct Access Storage Device). Not clear why scanimage would even affect it. Is there a card reader or thumb drive or something attached to the scanner?

The strange thing is that I get the OS2DASD trap on both scanners, plugged individually. The Epson L4150 is a multifunction printer, it does not have card reader, but it may have more internal things. The HP ScanJet Pro 2000 S1 is just a pure scanner.

Hi

Well, my problem is that doing the conversion does not preserve the ICON's background transparency...why not?

In my experience I have never seen a BPM file with transparency, but I may be wrong.

Is there a specific need for the need of BPM format with transparency? Can you use PNG ?

Regards

Thanks for the feedback

I understand better was is refereed as "backend" since it the SANE software, but also the conf file.

Quote
Then I run scanimage telling it which backend configuration file to use, with the parameters I want.
    SCANIMAGE.EXE -d epson2 -l 0 -t 0 -x 215 -y 297 --mode Color --resolution 300 --depth 14 --format=tiff

Ian, I had tried your suggest scanimage command, with "epson, epson2 and epsonds" and I did not get any response from the scanner.

Pete, thanks for the more specific information and links. It seems that my Epson Scanner (04b8:1135) is listed on a backed called "utsushi". I was expecting to be as simple as getting a .conf file, but it seems that something needs to be compiled.

The other things that is an stopper for me is that I get an OS2DASD trap while running "Scanimage -L".

I switched to the other scanner, HP ScanJet Pro 2000 S1.

Scanimage -L started to produce some output on the console, and then... TRAP again. OS2DASD.  :(

I'm not sure what else can I try.

Paul recommended me on IRC to use "SANE" from the RPM YUM instead of  the one on his site.

So I remove TAME/2 and SANE to start over.
I installed "yum install sane-backends".

I set up by hand the following on the config.sys.
  set sane_config_dir=x:\etc\sane.d

sane-find-scanner give me the following:
Code: [Select]
[X:\]sane-find-scanner

  # sane-find-scanner will now attempt to detect your scanner. If the
  # result is different from what you expected, first make sure your
  # scanner is powered up and properly connected to your computer.

  # No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that
  # you have loaded a kernel SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter.

found USB scanner (vendor=0x147e [UPEK], product=0x1002 [TouchStrip Fingerprint
Sensor      ]) at libusb:001:003
could not fetch string descriptor: Input/output error
could not fetch string descriptor: Input/output error
found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8, product=0x1135) at libusb:001:004
  # Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be supported by
  # SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage.

  # Not checking for parallel port scanners.

  # Most Scanners connected to the parallel port or other proprietary ports
  # can't be detected by this program.

ScanImage -L is producing me a TRAP on OS2DASD even with the RPM netlabs SAME sometimes.  If I disconnected the scanner from the USB port it will not trap, reconnect it and scanimage -L will say it did not recognize a scanner.

Paul suggested:
Quote
sane logs might be interesting...
set SANE_DEBUG_xxxxxxx=255
set SANE_DEBUG_SANEI_USB=255
set SANE_DEBUG_DLL=255
scanimage -v 1>output.pnm 2>debugoutput.txt
xxxxxxx is the backend for your scanner

I still do not understand what is a backend. I guess it is a config files inside "\etc\sane.d", right?

Looks like SANE also requires USBLIB. You all make sure that you have an updated version. Update via RPM.
Hi Lars

I already had the libusb1 and libusb-legacy installed and updated. Not sure what else can I be missing.

Hi

Now I don't know what do do.
I replaced the SANE files inside the TAME installation folder with the latest SANE port.
I tried TAME/2 and selected different configurations like "Epson StylusScan 2000", "Epson RX640" and "Expson GT9700 USN" and I don't get a preview, or any scanner action at all.

If I run "Scanimage -L" I get a OS2DASD trap.

Regards

Hi

The latest SANE (Sane-backends-1.0.27-os2-20190321.zip.) give me a different message.

Code: [Select]
[X:\PROGRAMS\SANE]sane-find-scanner

  # sane-find-scanner will now attempt to detect your scanner. If the
  # result is different from what you expected, first make sure your
  # scanner is powered up and properly connected to your computer.

  # No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that
  # you have loaded a kernel SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter.

So, I guess it recognize it:
 found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8, product=0x1135) at libusb:001:002

Now I will check what to do with TAME.

Hi

No luck for the moment.

I'm trying the Epson EcoTank L4150 - Multifunction printer with a flatbed scanner.

lsusb recognize it:
Quote
[X:\]lsusb
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 04b8:1135 Seiko Epson Corp.
I'm guessing the printer and scanner has the same HardwareID.

I installed Tame/2 - Tame_1-0-5_2008-04-26.exe. I did not installed USBRESMG.SYS and USBCALLS from that package, since I already have it ArcaOS.
I have USBRESMG.SYS and USBCALLS 12.7 from ArcaOS. 

Code: [Select]

I'm running "sane-find-scanner" from Tame.
[X:\programs\tame]sane-find-scanner

  # sane-find-scanner will now attempt to detect your scanner. If the
  # result is different from what you expected, first make sure your
  # scanner is powered up and properly connected to your computer.

  # No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that
  # you have loaded a kernel SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter.

  # No USB scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that
  # you have loaded a kernel driver for your USB host controller and have setup
  # the USB system correctly. See man sane-usb for details.
  # SANE has been built without libusb support. This may be a reason
  # for not detecting USB scanners. Read README for more details.

  # Not checking for parallel port scanners.

  # Most Scanners connected to the parallel port or other proprietary ports
  # can't be detected by this program.


Nothing detected. Now I will try the newer SANE. Sane-backends-1.0.27-os2-20190321.zip.

Hi

I will test tonight two scanners I have here.
- Epson EcoTank L4150 - Multifunction printer with a flatbed scanner.
- HP ScanJet Proo 2000 S1 - Duplex Sheet-feed Scanner

What are the recommended first steps with SANE, or commands to see if its get recognized by Sane in any way?
I have never use SANE directly, I remember I used just the TAME/2 GUI long time ago.

https://smedley.id.au/tmp/uniaud32-linux-5.8.18-20210104-debug.zip

I just did a quick test with "uniaud32-linux-5.8.18-20210104-debug.zip" on the ArcaOS 5.0.6 VM on W10 host on the TP Yoga 14.
No Trap. It produce sound, and I have control of the volume with the master volume tool. Working good.

Hi

Does anybody has some good experience with USB scanner under ArcaOS?
If so, Can you please let me know which scanner, drivers, tricks and software are you using?

I want to give it a try some USB scanners that I have around .

Time for a glass of wine :)

https://smedley.id.au/tmp/uniaud32-linux-5.4.86-20210101.zip - produces sound with ac97 and hda hardware in Virtualbox.

Will try on real hardware this afternoon.

I tried "uniaud32-linux-5.4.86-20210101.zip " on ArcaOS 5.0.6 on the Thinkpad L420.
No Trap. But it does not produce any sounds.

Hi Martin,

Thanks for testing. Next steps will be to upload current sources to Netlabs, then try and fix some of the reported issues.

Cheers,

Paul

Paul, as an alternative, Adrian (Netlabs) gave me administrator access to Netlabs github account: https://github.com/netlabsorg
If you prefer a git this can be al alternative, otherwise everything is ok at Netlabs trak.
