i had the new version, and the new version exclusively, on my system and it didn't work.
i did remove it when i installed 1.0.5, and rpm agrees. 1.0.5 just happens to be using /usr/local/etc/sane.d instead of /etc/sane.d like i though. i changed the epson.conf in that directory, and here is the new output.
