I have had exactly the same problem two days ago (with Mandrake 9.0. and a USB scanner Canon N676U). I had put : options scanner vendor=0x04a9 product=0x220d in /etc/modules.conf but I still was obliged to do a : modprobe scanner vendor=0x04a9 product=0x220d every time I wanted to find the scanner with scanimage -L. Eventually I noticed that with lsmod, the name of the module was "scanner" and I added in /etc/modules.conf two lines instead of one: alias /dev/usb/scanner0 scanner options scanner vendor=0x04a9 product=0x220d and now it works without modprobing. Don't know exactly if it is very correct, but it IS working... Bye, -- Philippe
