It is probably incomplete and more or newer versions may exist. Please let me know if you have more information on available drivers or tried (un)successfully one of the models I'm unsure about. It is also important for me to know which scanner models are identical, so existing drivers can be used for them.

Eric Chang has created a patch to use them with IF960 interface cards. In theory all these drivers are compatible on the ioctl-level, so all scanning applications that work with one of them should work with all others as well. In practice some do and some don't... If somebody has tried scanning applications with different drivers, I'd like to include this information. No driver works so far for: Escom 256 (= Primax Lector Premier 256) Genius ScanMate/256 Genius ScanMate/Color Genius EasyScan Mustek CG 8000 Trust Ami Scan Where to get the drivers: ftp://tsx-11.mit.edu/pub/linux/ALPHA/scanner/ http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/kernel/patches/scanners/ http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/apps/graphics/capture/ And here are some scanning programs: http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/apps/graphics/capture/ More Info You should also check out the SANE project for more scanner drivers.
