I use a Canon LiDE 30 recognized as
uscanner0: Canon CanoScan, rev 1.10/1.00, addr 3
in FreeBSD 6.0-STABLE (should also appear in 5.x) together with
sane-backends-1.0.15 and xsane-0.96.

Sometimes the sensorpanel get stucked, but it might be because it
is old. And it seems it can't cope with the resolutions below 64
dpi. Otherwise it works fine.
