Hi, I also have an Epson Perfection 2400 scanner. While browsing around, I ended up here: http://www.avasys.jp/english/linux_e/dl_scan.html It is a site with software for Linux. The software is called iscan.
Has anyone heard of it? If so, has anybody installed on Gentoo? Lastly, is this iscan an application or a twaine or what? I noticed that it interfaces with gimp too. I Thank you for the clarification. Spiro
