I have now fitted a computer (AMD-64 running Dapper) with an IEEE-1394 Firewire port, connected the scanner via that interface (it shows up at /dev/sg0) and, after tweaking permissions, xsane works it flawlessly. Another Epson Perfection 2450 Photo user (running various versions of Fedora Core) reports essentially identical behaviour. Therefore, is the problem with the more recent version(s) of libusb, rather than with libsane?
