     Hello,

     the first thing I would try would be to compile SANE with the 
"opposite" version of libusb. If 'ldd libsane-umax1220u.so' shows it is 
linked against "libusb 1.0 Compatibility Library for libusb-0.1", I 
would try to compile with libusb-1.0 by giving the '--enable-libusb_1_0' 
option to configure. If it is the other way round, I'd configure without it.
     You can compile and test 'locally' (ie no 'make install') by doing 
'export LD_PRELOAD=.libs/libsane-umax1220u.so' and then run scanimage 
from the 'sane-backends/backend' source directory.
     If switching libusb doesn't help, I'm afraid you'll have to test 
either an older kernel, or a newer one. I'm not seeing this issue on a 
3.4.1 32bits kernel (with USB3 support enabled).

Regards,
     Stef
