[sane-devel] Epson Perfection 3490 on Ubuntu Breezy 5.10?

[Denis Haskin]

Okay, a little more headway:

I installed the Epson iScan package from 
http://www.avasys.jp/english/linux_e/dl_scan.html

After converting it to a .deb, I installed it with --force-overwrite and 
it installed.

The scanner *still* seems to be resetting every few seconds and getting 
a new USB device number, which doesn't seem right (from dmesg):

[4298121.465000] usb 5-1: USB disconnect, address 94
[4298121.633000] usb 5-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and 
address 95
[4298148.215000] usb 5-1: USB disconnect, address 95
[4298148.383000] usb 5-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and 
address 96

scanimage now fails with:
scanimage: sane_start: Invalid argument

when I turn debugging on, I get a ton of detail I can't make heads or 
tails of <grin>.  See it here:  http://pastebin.com/435805 .  Any 
suggestions?  Thanks!
