Hello,

When I run scanimage -L as a regular user and as root, I get two different
results

$ sudo scanimage -L
[sudo] password for apu:
WARNING: Unhandled message: interface=org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable,
path=/, member=Introspect
device `epkowa:usb:001:006' is a Epson Stylus CX8300/CX8400/DX8400 flatbed
scanner

$ scanimage -L
WARNING: Unhandled message: interface=org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable,
path=/, member=Introspect
device `epkowa:usb:001:006' is a Epson (unknown model) flatbed scanner

Correspondingly, I cannot scan as regular user, but I can as root. When I
start iscan, I get "Could not send command to scanner" in a popup, and the
terminal where I started iscan from shows

$ iscan
WARNING: Unhandled message: interface=org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable,
path=/, member=Introspect

I have

$ lsusb|grep -i eps
Bus 001 Device 006: ID 04b8:0839 Seiko Epson Corp. CX8300/CX8400/DX8400

(the multifunction is a CX8400) and

$ dpkg-query -l iscan|grep isc
ii  iscan
2.22.1-2.ltdl7                             simple, easy to use scanner
utility for EPSON scanners

on a 64 bit ubuntu 9.10 box.

Thx!
