Hi,
I recently found an Epson Perfection 3170 which I would like to use
under 64-bit Ubuntu. After realising that there is no free or 64-bit
driver for this scanner I started looking into writing one.
I got as far as snooping the USB communication from the Windows driver
and I can now load the fi

Write a backend for this scanner, and while/before doing so, check
that it's not supported/supportable by one of the existing backend

supports a couple of fujitsu machines that use epson chipsets.
One of those machines reports that it is an epson gt9400 if you botch
the firmware upload, so i guess we can see where the chip came from :)

Yep, I saw it in my logs, but it seems to be insignificant so I haven't
added it (yet). My scanner returns "EPSON GT-F670 1.00".

I tried your code with my scanner and firmware, but it didn't work. The
backlight for scanning negatives was switched on b

I'm not surprised :)
BTW, have you changed path to firmware in the code?
