Hi, Dalton.
In the recent past I had a problem with the USB scanner AcerScan 620U.
I still have problems... But it's my experience:
I've read and followed the steps in http://sourceforge.net/projects/snapscan.
(perhaps it works for you ;-)
When I connect the USB scanner, it is detected but is not calimed by any
active driver:
�:-|
--------------------
Jun 25 20:08:32 caret kernel: hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1,
assigned device number 2
Jun 25 20:08:32 caret kernel: usb.c: USB device 2 (vend/prod 0x4a5/0x2060) is
not claimed by any active driver.
--------------------
Then I do: insmod scanner, and it seems to work:
--------------------
Jun 25 20:10:09 caret kernel: usb.c: registered new driver usbscanner
Jun 25 20:10:09 caret kernel: scanner.c: USB Scanner support registered.
Jun 25 20:10:17 caret kernel: usb.c: USB disconnect on device 3
Jun 25 20:10:23 caret kernel: hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1,
assigned device number 4
--------------------
:-)
Now, following the steps, I upload the firmware:
./acerfirm /dev/usb/scanner0 u96v057.bin
Then the scanner starts flashing it's LED (it works, it works!)
:-D
Now, I would like to scan a photo.
Ups!:

-----------------
Now xscanimage is died. The RXVT is died, too.
:-(
Well. For now, I must use windows to scan. Maybe anybody knows the fix?
Thank you!
Salu2,
Oscar.
