scanimage is a functional frontend for the N670U. Other frontends (simple-scan, xscanimage) I've tried fail to return the scan head or produce a black image with no scan head movement.

Sometimes it shows up as a scanner but I have not been able to scan with it. The scanner worked out of the box in Ubuntu 10:04. There appears to be some kind of regression.
