Hi,
The situation has improved and I wanted to share the
progress so far:
The problem was that my epson perfection 1250 did not
work with iscan or the epson drivers and produced red
images with the plustek driver.
I noticed that my original rpms were in /usr/... and
the new sane frontend and backend packages were
installed in /usr/local/...
Reinstalled the thing:
* editing the configure script (changing
ac_default_prefix=/usr/)
* running configure again
* make install
and it works well now :)
It still does not work with iscan and the epson
drivers.

Other stuff:
* isnmod scanner vendor=0x4b8 product=0x10f
you need to have the scanner module installed
* The vendor and product I got from:
cat /proc/bus/usb/devices
or you could get it from you mandrake
control center - information - usb devices
* Make sure you have read write permission:
For example:
> ls -l /dev/usb
crw------- 1 root usb 180, 48 Jan 1
1970 scanner0
> mknod /dev/usbscanner c 180 48
> chown username:username /dev/usbscanner
* editted /etc/sane.d/dll.conf
/etc/sane.d/plustek.conf
* run with:
xsane -d plustek:/dev/usbscanner
Thanks for your help,
shuri
