Do you have USB scanner support compiled in or as a module? The option you're looking for is CONFIG_USB_SCANNER in the USB section.

When you plug the scanner in you should see a message in dmesg like:
  hub 4-0:1.0: new USB device on port 1, assigned address 3
  drivers/usb/image/scanner.c: USB scanner device (0x03f0/0x0605) now
  attached to usb/scanner0

I just bought a USB scanner (Epson perfection 1660), and, of course, I
can't get it to work under linux. Murphy rules.
The kernel is 2.4.22 vanilla, with usb support compiled in. Something
is
wrong at a base level, because the file /proc/bus/usb/devices is
empty!
The scanner was already on when I started the computer.
Any idea?
TIA.
