Having the same problem on my Canon N650U with Intrepid.

It happens to me from time to time, either just before or just after completing a scan. The bar starts grinding like it's moving back and forth a fraction of a centimeter very quickly. The light on the scan head is on, as if it's trying to scan instead of just move back to park.

Interestingly enough, I can load up virtualbox where I've got an XP install, and scan in there over and over and it never fails.
