I also have got a Epson Stylus SX410 and I'm affected by this bug, too.
I'm trying to provide as much information as I can so that a developer
can get this fixed.

According to the list on their website, the Sytlus SX410 is fully
supported by sane.

'sane-find-scanner' seems to find the scanner: 'found USB scanner
(vendor=0x04b8, product=0x0851) at libusb:002:006'. However, 'scanimage
-L' identifies no scanner.

I tried to remove the printer as warnfried suggested in comment #3, but
this didn't have any effect for me. I could still not scan.

I also tried the workaround suggested by pelaodiego in bug #72506,
comment #7 (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sane-
backends/+bug/72506/comments/7) and adapted the IDs to the SX410 (see
above). This didn't work either.

I don't get a segfault when starting xsane via the commandline as
experienced by Cedders (comment #4).

I also tried the scanner using Linux Mint Elyssa and Knoppix 5.1.1 Live
CDs and it didn't work in that distros either. So, this seems to be a
wider known problem (although I didn't find other similar bugreports).

Is someone working on a solution for this? Do we have to send this
report upstream? To which project?

I'd really appreciate if I could finally use my scanner and I'm willing
to help to find a solution to this if you need more specific
information.
