Be aware that Epson says, that you can expect problems when attaching 
the scanner through a hub.
On my previous machine, I had a USB2 card in a PCI slot, and USB1.1 on 
the motherboard (Linux kernel 2.4) and the scanner only worked when 
attached to the motherboard USB.

For me it gives no difference using the Epkowa frontend - they 
build/relay on Sane-backends.
