A longshot but easy to try: If you are using a USB hub, unplug, wait,
replug, or go direct without a hub for a test.  My hub recently
went crazy, & like you, Xsane started then hung.  A power off of
the hub fixed it, xsane worked again. Some PCs have internal hubs
I think ? A power off reboot worth a try ?

PS Xsane really nice, thanks all!  My latest favourite is the auto
name increment when using a file name such as /home/jhs/tmp/t0101.tiff

Cheers
