Re: Epson scanner issues...

For what it may be worth: You non't need to use the epson Iscan stuff. 
My 1660 works fine with just the sane backend and xsane frontend (on 
RH7.3, that is). The steps I followed are at

Hi there,

I've finally gotten sick of trying to get my Epson Perfection 1260
USB scanner to work. The Epson Iscan software won't work under Mandrake
9.1 (despite working very well under 9.0), and Epson seem to be slow
to resolve issues with that (most users with a > 2.4.19 kernel will
have trouble either running the software, or trouble compiling it).
