Similar, but I get "Perfection1640(0x010a), EPSON(0x04b8), rev 0x0103".

Version 1.0.7_1.  I also have xsane installed.

Mine also has a "scsi EPSON" entry before the usb line (some comments
not shown):

# epson.conf
# SCSI scanner:
scsi EPSON
# USB scanner
usb /dev/uscanner0

I get no debug messages, just:

device `epson:/dev/uscanner0' is a Epson Perfection1640 flatbed scanner

The only difference I see is versions and the "scsi Epson" line in the
epson.conf file.  On mine, it doesn't care if it's on at boot, it'll
detect the attachment of a USB device.
