I have rebooted several times, and sane now always finds the scanner, no matter where it appears on the bus! To summarise: I added the following line to my udev.rules (sorry about the wrod-wrap!) # permissions for usb scanner SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ACTION=="add", ENV{PRODUCT}=="4b8/11d/*", RUN+="/bin/sh -c '/bin/chgrp scanner $env{DEVICE}; /bin/chmod 664 $env{DEVICE}'" Many thanks to all those who have contributed ideas, and particularly to Wittawat Yamwong for the solution! Might be an idea to add this fix in the documentation somewhere? Cheers, -- Pete chri...@attglobal.net
