I'm currently using an Epson Perfection 1260 under FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE (well, actually 4.9-RC right now). Currently I wouldn't recommend using an Epson Perfection 1260: Scans quite well, but can only be accessed if the scanner was accessed from another operating system once and is not switched off afterwards. I used the 'Windows 98'-way and have been told that a Linux Knoppix also works (for the necessary initial scan). I use xscanimage without any problems. xsane preview scan scans up to the physical limit(*) of the scanner and decides to crash afterwards (both on end of preview scan and if preview is cancelled) - normal scanning works, though. Regards, Holger Kipp (*) including a grinding noise if the limit is reached.
