Coldplugging hot-pluggable devices does not work and should not work under 2.4, at least it fails for usb-storage. I think, scanner driver is loaded statically out of /etc/init.d/usb depending on /etc/sysconfig/usb settings - could you check if it really works? Chances are driver name has changed between 2.4 and 2.6 so this loading under fixed name fails, please compare drivers for 2.4 and 2.6. Svetljo has fixed hotplug RPM that supports 2.6, if you enable its initscript it will emulate hotplugging for all devices present at boot and will load drivers automatically, no manual config is needed. -andrey
