Okay. I paged back in the thread in the link I sent.
 From there I recapture

"Your need A1fw.usb file. This is driver, which has to be placed into 
gt68xx folder."

I asked google about A1fw.usb. You can get it from here: 
http://www.meier-geinitz.de/sane/gt68xx-backend/firmware/A1fw.usb

Download it, save it, as root shove it into the right directory. It 
should go to /usr/share/sane/gt68xx/ (or rather: be there already)

After that, connect the scanner, the driver should be located and 
loaded. That should do the trick, from what I can find out.

good luck
Paul
