The problem is you have too much memory :-) Just kidding. Unfortunatley
"SuSE 7.1" is not sufficient anymore: SuSE now delivers two kernels with
their system, one 2.2.18 and the other one 2.4.0.
Do you see a difference between the two kernels?
Please check my FAQ page at
http://www.freecolormanagement.com/sane/faq.html
for more information about how to patch the kernel to avoid the NAKs.

The "option" line does nothing for the EPSON backend.

The default directory for Sane is /usr/local/.... Most Linux distributions
put it into /usr/... because it is part of the system. The /usr/local
philosophy comes from the old day of Unix, when everything that was part
of the orginal system went into the /usr hierarchy, and everything that
was installed by the user on the "local" system was put under /usr/local.
