Looks like in the end there was mistake on my end, that didn't let sane
detect my scanner. You see, with my distribution two packages are
shipped: sane-backends and sane-backends-libs. Before installing sane
from sources i did remove sane-backends but didn't do the same with
sane-backends
Great news Igor,
You are making progress! At this point, I have a couple of suggestions.
1. Read up on doing a USB sniff with the scanner connected to a windows
machine. http://benoit.papillault.free.fr/usbsnoop/doc.php.en is the one that I
recommend. You can scan a very small object at low resol
Sun has long set and as my work for today nears its end, i'll try to
write down all questions i have for now.

Thanks to both Jack and Olaf for advice.
Now all configuration files are in place, except one, sadly being
mustek_usb2.conf... Which is just like it was when sane was installed
from an rpm package. That's strange, because ./configure clearly says
that backend will be built:

Hello.
I've got Mustek BearPaw 2448 CU Pro scanner, and even though it's not
yet supported, i wanted to give it a go. If i get it right, backend for
this scanner or its chip already exists, but it's untested or
something.. Anyway, it can only work from unstable version, so i removed

Igor,
I reread your post and I didn't answer all of your questions.
As far as your question about the sane-find-scanner resulting in two
scanners:
"found USB scanner (vendor=0x055f [Hewlett-Packard.],
product=0x0408 [USB2.0 Scanner], chip=SQ113) at
libusb:001:002

Hello Igor,
Take a look at these pages:
http://www.sane-project.org/unsupported/mustek-bearpaw-2448-cu-pro.html
and http://www.meier-geinitz.de/sane/mustek_usb2-backend/
It looks like this page could possibly be added to the mustek_usb2
backend. This backend supports the BearPaw 2448 TA Pro, which
