I just checked the behavior of my LiDE220. I plugged the scanner into USB3,

which worked and thereafter xsane works fine. I could not reproduce the
error again by closing and restarting xsane or replugging the scanner
(multiple times). All other front ends I tried worked.

I tried that sequence of steps...it errored out on both attempts to scan (scan and preview).

Your newest symptoms sound like the issues pre 1.0.25. Are you sure of the version you're running? Try renaming or deleting your ~/.sane directory.

It's definitely 1.0.25:

salfter@janeway ~ $ emerge -pv sane-backends

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

I tried nuking ~/.sane and rerunning the steps above...still no joy.

Next step might be to bring the scanner in to work and try it out with my old computer that I took into the office. There, it'd be running on Gentoo Linux in a VirtualBox VM under Windows 7. I already have that box working with an ancient LiDE 20 that Canon doesn't support under anything newer than Windows XP and would just need to compile in the genesys backend (the LiDE 20 uses the plustek backend).
