Hi Marcus, Did you follow the installation description in README.linux, which comes with the source code?
Please test the used Sane version with 'scanimage -V'. You should see: scanimage (sane-backends) 1.0.25git; backend version 1.0.25 Please install resent Sane from git (1.0.25). I'd like to patch only the recent version, if needed.
