I have a Acer 640BU Scanner which is USB. I've noticed a few problems
with the sane-1.0.3 backend (using some USB patches). Most of them
are lockup related.
I have better luck with the version of sane-1.0.1. You might download
it and try it out. The same change you added to 1.0.3 is needed but
label it as a SNAPSCAN600 instead of a PRISA620S.
Also, I'm slowing adding patches to the new snapscan webpage. They
include patches for USB support and various snapshots of the
developement between whats in sane-1.0.1 and sane-1.0.3.
http://snapscan.sourceforge.net/ and
http://sourceforge.net/projects/snapscan
If anyone would like to help out on written web pages on how to set up
our AFGA/Acer scanner it would be very helpful so I could concentrate
on coding.
