May be it's not a SANE specific problem but kernel's experimental changes and updated libraries that conflict with binary verions provided by Ubuntu, and other distros. At least, testing with a backend (not related to your scanner), the one provided by distro didn't work and the same one compiled from SANE sources in Feisty worked like a charm. So one solution could be to compile SANE against current library versions in each distro and after testing its funtionability, notify maintainers to update their packages. Jonathan Bravo Lopez
