Can you try running as root? It could just be a permissions issue. Also, if you built sane-backends to overwrite the system provided version, it likely did not overwrite the config files in /etc/sane.d In particular, the fujitsu.conf file would not contain the iX500. You can get that file from the sane-backends/backend dir where you compiled the source.
