Its a Via VT8235 based USB 2.0 controller, on an Asrock K7VM4 mobo, and there are 3 USB hubs for a total of 6 USB 1.x/2.0 ports, none of which allow me to see the device on the bus...
watch cat /proc/bus/usb/devices
plug and unplug the scanner a few times and see if the output of /proc/bus/usb/devices changes
Thanks Nick...I'll give it a crack. Just from interest I plugged the scanner into my vintage 133MHz Toshiba laptop, and it can see the scanner fine, so thank goodness the scanner isn't bung. I'd try scanning on the laptop, but X windows tends to swallow all the RAM in the laptop (48MB) even with IceWM or FVWM, let alone a RAM hog like KDE! Scanning 6x4 photos at 1200dpi will likely kill the laptop stone dead! :-(
