If you're using a newer Linux distribution that's LSB compliant, edit
/etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev-default.rules, find the line that begins
with libusb device access and change 0644 to 0666. (It might be in
/lib/udev/rules.d)

For my old scanner I created a custom udev rules file (symlinked as
/etc/udev/rules/55-scanmakerx12usl.rules
You can try to modify it for your purpose (change idVendor and
idProduct attributes)...

Re: resume from hibernate

But I'm missing something: hibernate saves memory to swap and turns off
the machine. Then to resume I hit the power button and grub appears, I
select the partition and it boots, finding fault with the not unmounted
partitions :-(
Do you have defined a correct (swap) partition for the resume in
/etc/default/grub? Something like:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=vga=791 resume=/dev/sda2
where is especially important part 'resume=/dev/sda2' ('/dev/sda2' is
swap partition on my thinkpad)...

I use to get the list of obsoleted packages using aptitude. Now that I'm
planning to remove aptitude, what are the alternatives?
I think it would suit you something like this:
apt-show-versions | grep --ignore-case --invert-match testing | grep \
--ignore-case No available version in archive
