Christopher M. Penalver, sorry for not expressing myself clearly: what I meant is that if two kernel versions have the same configurations then I would expect that they would work the same way. But maybe that is not the case. What made me suspicious is that a kernel version did work, then a later version did not, and yet an even later version worked again. I guess, everything is possible, so it would still make sense to do a bisect.
Nevertheless, the execise would be academic, since 12.04 works well on the ASUS desktop as well, including scanner. So even if there were some obscure kernel reason for the 13.04 scanner busy malfunction it would not be an improvement benefitting the entire Ubuntu community. Therefore I'll mark this bug as Status Invalid. Again, thank you for your attention to this matter.
