Subject: sane: Scanning works only as root Package: sane Version: 1.0.14-7 Severity: important
*** Please type your report below this line *** I installed the packages sane sane-utils xsane kooka. As root i can run "sane-find-scanner": ... found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8 [EPSON], product=0x0110 [EPSON Scanner]) at libusb:001:004 ... and "scanimage -L" device `epson2:libusb:001:004' is a Epson GT-8200 flatbed scanner device `epson:libusb:001:004' is a Epson GT-8200 flatbed scanner device `epkowa:libusb:001:004' is a Epson Perfection 1650 flatbed scanner When i run xsane as ROOT with kdesu i can scan a image, but when i run it as normal user no scanners can be found! So when i run the commands as normal user i get with "sane-find-scanner" ... found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8, product=0x0110) at libusb:001:004 ... which is NOT my Epson Perfectopn 1650. And "scanimage -L" says: No scanners were identified ... I tried everything to solve this obvious problem of rights. But nothing helps. :-( I added the normal users to the groups saned and scanner. And i changed the rights for the group scanner for the devices: ># ls -l /dev/*usb* crw-rw---- 1 root scanner 251, 1 5. Okt 12:50 /dev/usbdev1.1_ep00 crw-rw---- 1 root scanner 251, 0 5.

Okt 12:50 /dev/usbmon3 the interesting thing is that the rights for the devices: usbdev1.4_ep01 and usbdev1.4_ep82 are turned back to "root root" after calling scanimage.
