[sane-devel] USB scanning broken afte re-install

[Nick Lindsell]

Greetings group,
	I had got my Epson 1260 scanner setup and working perfectly - the my hard 
drive went down so I have to start over.  But this time I cannot get the 
scanner to run - sane-find-scanner
returns OK but scanimage -L does nothing and I get usb_control timeout 
messages in the syslog.
(This is RedHat 8.0 with latest updates)

Can anyone shed a light on my trouble? - I believe I've left out something 
simple
but no amount of googling is getting me anywhere.

Some system info:-
