[sane-devel] Help with Epson1650 USB under SuSE 7.2

[Steve Westwood]

Hi. I am trying to get my Epson Perfection 1650 USB scanner working. I have 
done everything I can find on the support sites, and RTFM till I'm crosseyed, 
but so far no joy. Can anyone help? TIA.

The scanner is seen on the bus, but xsane reports "no devices available". 
Below are details of the relevant files. I have tried 
modprobe scanner vendor=0x04b8 product=0x0110 but still get a "Driver=(none)" 
error.

/dev/usb/scanner0 exists with permissions 0666
/dev/usb/scanner and /dev/scanner exist as symlinks to /dev/usb/scanner0

What else do I need to do?
