RHEL4&5 Automount for USB/CDROM/DVDROM
Hi Guys,
as above, how do I enable automount for USB/CDROM/DVDROM in RHEL4 & 5?
I have searched the forum on this topic but didn't find any.
Also searched the net but it seems confusing and there are different ways to do things depending on the distros.
Btw, I am on RHEL command line only with no GNOME or KDE.
TIA

sane-canon630u
sane-canon630u(5) SANE Scanner Access Now Easy sane-canon630u(5)
NAME
sane-canon630u - SANE backend for the Canon 630u USB flatbed scanner
DESCRIPTION
The sane-canon630u library implements a SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) backend that provides access to the following Canon flatbed scan-
ners:
CanoScan 630u
CanoScan 636u
Color scanning is supported at 75, 150, 300, and 600 dpi, and gamma and analog gain are adjustable.
TESTERS ARE WELCOME. Send your bug reports and comments to Nathan Rutman <nthn1@yahoo.com>
CONFIGURATION
The contents of the canon630u.conf file is a list of device names that correspond to Canon USB scanners. Empty lines and lines starting
with a hash mark (#) are ignored. Only one device name can be listed in canon630u.conf. The program sane-find-scanner helps to find out
the correct device. Under Linux, such a device name could be /dev/usb/scanner0 for example. See sane-usb(5) for details.
This product-specific scanner driver uses the lower-level kernel USB driver "scanner". Check for "Driver=usbscanner" under
/proc/bus/usb/devices. If "Driver=(none)", try forcing it with "insmod scanner vendor=0x04a9 product=0x2204"
NOTES
Due to Canon's unwillingness to provide scanner documentation, this software was developed by analyzing the USB traffic of the Windows 2000
driver. So things like the calibration procedure I kind of made up; it seems to work for my scanner. If you have complaints, let me know.
This driver requires the ability to send USB Control Messages, available in kernel 2.4.12 or later.
Some users have reported that this driver doesn't work at all. This seems to be a hardware specific issue, although I don't know what
exactly the problem is. If you are having problems, please send me the info in /proc/bus/usb/devices, /proc/pci, the kernel scanner.c
driver version from /var/log/messages, and the output from "SANE_DEBUG_CANON630U=12 scanimage > /dev/null"
FILES
/etc/sane.d/canon630u.conf
The backend configuration file (see also description of SANE_CONFIG_DIR below).
/usr/lib64/sane/libsane-canon630u.a
The static library implementing this backend.
/usr/lib64/sane/libsane-canon630u.so
The shared library implementing this backend (present on systems that support dynamic loading).
/tmp/canon.cal
The calibration file used to normalize pixel brightness. This is calculated every time the scanner is first used after it has lost
power. Deleting this file will force recalibration.
ENVIRONMENT
SANE_CONFIG_DIR
This environment variable specifies the list of directories that may contain the configuration file. Under UNIX, the directories
are separated by a colon (`:'), under OS/2, they are separated by a semi-colon (`;'). If this variable is not set, the configura-
tion file is searched in two default directories: first, the current working directory (".") and then in /etc/sane.d. If the value
of the environment variable ends with the directory separator character, then the default directories are searched after the explic-
itly specified directories. For example, setting SANE_CONFIG_DIR to "/tmp/config:" would result in directories "tmp/config", ".",
and "/etc/sane.d" being searched (in this order).
SANE_DEBUG_CANON630U
If the library was compiled with debug support enabled, this environment variable controls the debug level for this backend. Higher
debug levels increase the verbosity of the output.
Example:
SANE_DEBUG_CANON630U=12 scanimage > /dev/null
