I recently bought an Epson Perfection 1260 Photo scanner.  While it is 
supported in Linux, I've seen warnings about versions of sane previous 
to 1.0.10 causing motor burnout problems.  My desktop system is Red Hat 
7.3, with sane-backends-1.0.7-6.  I assume this version is early enough 
to cause the problems.  I have checked Red Hat and rpmfind and not been 
able to find an appropriate update for RH 7.3.  Any suggestions as to 
what I should install?

tnx jk
