Greetings group, I had got my Epson 1260 scanner setup and working perfectly - the my hard drive went down so I have to start over. But this time I cannot get the scanner to run - sane-find-scanner returns OK but scanimage -L does nothing and I get usb_control timeout messages in the syslog. (This is RedHat 8.0 with latest updates)
Can anyone shed a light on my trouble? - I believe I've left out something simple but no amount of googling is getting me anywhere.
