It appear that I have some similar problems: sane-find-scanner find my
UMAX Astra 1220S but xcanimage is unable to get even a preview.

On my side I have a little clue about what is happening: I have a 2.2.x
PowerPC kernel and use the Debian sid version of Sane that I suspect
build for 2.4.x kernel.

I will first rebuild a 2.4 kernel before thinking about reporting a bug
