Mustek 600 USB Problem <scanner>
Hi guys
I just got an older scanner Mustek 600 USB from my sister who switched to mac so she no longer needs it. I was wandering if anyone has a driver for it under linux ?
I've been googling around but with no luck so far, so help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

well, I sure saw many there? I have a feeling it might be one of those labeled express or something like that, 600 sounds abit too plain for a product name especially since all the other names are fancier (:
PErhaps test one of the usb Mustek drivers, theres a good chance they work

Yes you are right, just "Mustek 600 USB" sounds very plain but in fact that is all that says on the scanner and is mustek's product since I cheekced on their web.
Funny things is they only provide driver for the "ancient" Win98 not even for later Window$ versions let alone LINUX ...
I did try other driver for mustek in linux but no luck so far.
Thanx for your attention
