Hello Jin.

I have the same setup, and my advice would be to get Vuescan, plus a cheap SCSI card. The reason for the SCSI card is that Ed Hamrick says that the FS4000 uses the USB channel in a somewhat unorthodox way which is not currently supported in the Linux USB implementation. The combination Vuescan + FS4000 + SCSI on Linux works very well.

Regards
Luca
