<quote src=http://www.linux-france.org/article/gvallee/scanner/epson1260-en.html> The goal of this document is to explain how install the Espon Perfection 1260 scanner under Linux, using the kernel 2.4.19 and sane 1.0.8. First, we need to get the following softwares: 1. the Linux kernel 2.4.19 (ftp://ftp.kernel.org), 2. sane-backends-1.0.8 (ftp://ftp.mostang.com/pub/sane/sane-1.0.8) 3. the kernel patch (patch-2.4.19-ep1260) 4. the sane patch (patch-sane-ep1260) When we have all this files, uncompress the Linux kernel and apply the kernel patch. Then, compile the kernel without forget to use the option usb scanner is the kernel configuration. Then, uncompress sane and apply the patch. Finally, compile sane and normally, you can now plug and use your scanner. </quote> i.e. High-power guru meditation needed.
