Hello!
I've got epson GT-8000 and I'm trying get it to work.

bash-2.05b# sane-find-scanner

found SCSI processor "EPSON SC ANNER GT-8000 1.36" at /dev/sg0
found SCSI processor "EPSON SC ANNER GT-8000 1.36" at /dev/sga

bash-2.05b# SANE_DEBUG_EPSON=128 scanimage -L
[sanei_debug] Setting debug level of epson to 128.

[epson] attach(SCSI EPSON, 1)
[epson] attach: opening SCSI EPSON
[epson] attach: open failed: Invalid argument
[epson] sane_get_devices()

Because this was from root account this is not permission problem. 
Scanner is attached to adaptec 2940
00:0d.0 SCSI storage controller: Adaptec AHA-2940/2940W / AIC-7871 (rev 03)

Unloading ide-scsi doesn't change the situation.
I'm using sane 1.0.13 on slackware-current, kernel 2.4.24

Any hint welcome

PS. Please comment me, I'm not on the list
