I want to use the scanner

   epson perfection v 330 photo

within opensuse linux 12.2. But when xsane 0.998 is opened while the 
scanner is on the message 'No device found' appears.

According to yast2 the following has been installed

   - hplip-sane
   - ksaneplugin
   - libksane0
   - sane-backends
   - sane-backends-32bit
   - sane-backends-autoconfig
   - xsane

In yast2, hardware, scanner, configuration the scanner is listed as not 
configured. Modify opens a long driver's list. For my scanner - see 
above - there is but one driver, but one is cautioned not to use it.

Epson itself does not support linux.

Help to get the device running would be appreciated.
