My Epson scanner now works - without USB 2

[David Fletcher]

This sort of problem seems to have been around for a while now. I've found a 
way to get mine to work with FC5, by disabling USB 2 support on the 
motherboard using a BIOS setting. So long as the scanner is connected to a 
motherboard USB connector and switched on BEFORE logging in. I've written up 
my findings and opened a fresh bugzilla report:-

It would be really useful I think if anybody who has an Epson scanner could 
take a look at this bug, and see if the same is true for their equipment.

Many thanks to anybody who can try this out.
