Try to downgrade libusb before doing anything else...

For me, libusb after 0.1-4_1%3a.0.1.7.x simply don't work.

The actual version is :

libusb-0.1-4_1%3a0.1.8-7_powerpc.deb

Not working, because xsane segfault for me too. So, for sure, something 
has changed between the two versions...


BTW : the last version working for me is 
libusb-0.1-4_1%3a0.1.7-3_powerpc.deb


I'm not sure, but I've read somewhere that libusb needs to use 
/proc/bus/usb, and new 2.6 is using /sys/bus/usb.

I've tested a workaround inserting this two lines  (see above) in my 
/etc/fstab, but without success

none /proc/bus/usb usbfs defaults 0 0
none /sys/bus/usb usbfs defaults 0 0

( powernowd, userland tool for managing processor frequency needs /sys )



Hope this can help you


Regards, eric
