OK it took me longer thant 3 hours, but at least I see some hope now
In my USB setting I changed from usb-uhci to -> usb-ohci
after that I already see my scanner.

After I tried to set the proper scanner by issuing
modprobe scanner vendor=04b8 product=011d
got the following error:
/lib/modules/2.4.19-16mdk/kernel/drivers/usb/scanner.o.gz: invalid argument syntax for vendor: 'b'
modprobe: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.19-16mdk/kernel/drivers/usb/scanner.o.gz failed
modprobe: insmod scanner failed
I still need your help !!!
xsane & iscan & whatever app still say that unable to send any bit to scanner.
So whats left, wrong sane ?
or is the epson driver not correctly installed (epson offers correct drivers together with iscan)
In the iscan package there was a file : usr/lib/sane/libsane-epsonkw.so.1.0.6
should I somewhere point to that one ???
No Idea howto go on.
