Howto get an usb scanner working under linux 2.6.3

[Joris Huizer]

Hello,

I'm trying to get my scanner to work under linux 2.6.3; It used to work 
fine under 2.4.24 but it turns out the scanner module was remove in 2.6

Can anybody tell me how to get the scanner to work? I tried something 
with libusb but it won't work; I followed 
http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2004/debian-user-200403/msg01116.html
- but running sane-find-scanner under linux 2.6.3 didn't show any 
scanners even though it should've found the scanner as it was on; So I 
got the data under 2.4.24 and continued -- but no luck (I also tried 
following the other hints in that thread)
Also /proc/bus/usb doesn't show anything at all (no files there)

Is there a known way to find this epson (epson perfection 1650) under 
2.6 ? Did I forget to put in a module in this 2.6.3 kernel? I could go 
back to 2.4.24 if support really is gone but I'd prefer getting this 
last hardware problem solved :p

best regards,

Joris
