Still having issues with my Epson 4490 too, after upgrading from 7.04 to 7.10. It worked fine in 7.04.

I've installed the libsane-extras and sane-utils packages.

sane-find-scanner shows:
found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8 [EPSON], product=0x0119 [EPSON Scanner]) at libusb:003:002

I added this to /etc/udev/rules.d/45-libsane.rules :
SYSFS{idVendor}=="04b8", SYSFS{idProduct}=="0119", MODE="664", GROUP="scanner"

I added this to /etc/sane.d/epson.conf :
usb 0×04b8 0x0119

Rebooted. Still no go. Any ideas or other info I can provide?

Thanks,
~Rick
