Hello:

I am trying to connect my Epson Perfection 1650 to a Up2date RH7.3 linux machine.  
I researched the archives and ran the follow test. The scanner is on and connected.
The device, /dev/usb/scanner0, privelages was set to 666. Can anyone help me out with the installation?  

Thanks

TESTS

"sane-find-scanner" produces:

sane-find-scanner: found USB scanner (vendor = 0x04b8, product = 0x0110) at device /dev/usb/scanner0

"export SANE_DEBUG_EPSON=3D12
xsane > /tmp/scan.log 2>&1" produces the output:

[sanei_debug] Setting debug level of epson to 3.
[epson] sane_init: sane-backends 1.0.7

[epson] attach: opening epson:/dev/ubs/scanner0

I have set epson.conf to both /dev/ubs/scnner0 (output not shown) and epson:/dev/ubs/scanner0

I issued:
"SANE_DEBUG_EPSON=255 scanimage -L" which produces:
