Check if /proc/bus/usb is mounted. That maybe where KDE info center gets its information. (I don't use KDE, so I can't really help you there). If not, it can be mounted by "mount -t usbdevfs none /proc/bus/usb" as root. also check that /dev/ and/or /dev/usb/ has the device files for your usb stuff. (what do you have beside the scanner?) With xsane, check the configuration files for xsane. They should be /etc/xsane or something like that. You may have to edit the configuration files to point xsane in the right direction. But lets make sure that usb is up and running first before tackling xsane. You got a USB mouse or something easy to test? Good luck.
