I had the same problem with Agfa Snapscan e40
xsane worked as root, but not as normal user for me
I inserted the following 2 lines in /etc/udev/rules.d just bevore the
line with LABEL="hpmud_rules_end"
{{{
# Check for Snapscan e40 (0x06bd 0x208d). 02.02.08 AKf
SYSFS{idVendor}=="06bd", SYSFS{idProduct}=="208d", OWNER="scanner",
GROUP="scanner"
}}}
I got the idVendor and idProduct-values from an earlier
{{{
scanimage -L
device `snapscan:libusb:002:002' is a AGFA SNAPSCAN e40 flatbed scanner
}}}
I also had to change a few lines in /etc/sane.d/snapscan.conf, and
copy the file snape40.bin from Scanner-CD to
/usr/share/sane/snapscan/snape40.bin
{{{
# Change to the fully qualified filename of your firmware file, if
# firmware upload is needed by the scanner
firmware /usr/share/sane/snapscan/snape40.bin
# If not automatically found you may manually specify a device name.
# For USB scanners also specify bus=usb, e.g.
/dev/usb/scanner0 bus=usb
}}}
I hope this helps others
