First my system:
Kernel 2.6.5  should work with 2.6.3 or newer
Fedora 2 test 3  Fedora 2 stable should be out by end of month
Gimp 2.0.1
libusb-0.1.8
sane-backends-1.0.13
sane-frontends-1.0.11
xsane-gimp-0.92
sane-backends-devel-1.0.13
xsane-0.92
Epson Perfection 610 usb
execute   sane-find-scanner | grep usb
output:
found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8 [EPSON], product=0x0103 [Perfection610  
]) at libusb:001:002
(libusb:aaa:bbb)

take vender#, product#, & libusb #s

edit /etc/sane.d/epson.conf   (as root)
leave everything commented out
add at bottom:  usb 0x04b8 0x0103
in other words: usb [vender#] [product#]

If you need the scanner available to all users on your system:
chmod 666 /proc/bus/usb/001/002    (as root)
(chmod 666 /proc/bus/usb/<aaa>/<bbb>)


PS FOR THE GEEKS:
sane-find-scanner  | grep libusb | LCC_ALL=C sed -e \
"s/found USB scanner [\(]vendor\=\(.*\)\ .*\ product=\(.*\)\[.* \(.*\ 
\)\\(.*\)\libusb\(.*\)/usb \1 \2\nchmod 666 \/proc\/bus\/usb\5 /g" \
| tr ':' '/'
