I've never had good luck with Wine; sorry. If there are Win programs you really need to use in linux, "Win4Lin" is very good and not too expensive: http://www.netraverse.com

Bad news, I'm afraid. My mum has one of these, and we could never even get it to work in Win2k, let alone linux. The sane project reports all Visioneer models as "unspported:"

Maybe donate the Visioneer to a local charity and pick up an Epson scanner instead. Epson actually collaborates with the sane project to develop linux drivers for their scanners. You can't beat that!
