** Description changed:
Binary package hint: xsane
Looks like a problem with udev rules or something like that ???
sudo xsane works perfectly, don't know wich device file or anything it
uses.
As user sane-find-scanner find the scanner :
[...]
found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8 [EPSON], product=0x0811 [USB2.0
MFP(Hi-Speed)]) at libusb:001:006
[...]
I given authorization for user everywhere I know :
* administration => authorization => device-access => Directly access
scanners (Yes/yes/yes + explicit authorization
* administration => users & groups => user properties : send/receive fax,
added in saned group
I restarted the system after these right was added.
but with my main users, xsane doesn't find the scanner.
+ I even tried to create a file /etc/udev/rules.d/45-libsane.rules
+ SYSFS{idVendor}=="04b8", SYSFS{idProduct}=="0811", MODE="664", GROUP="saned"
+
+ and kill -1 udev but it doesn't worked.
+
I then installed the 'sane' package, xscanimage/scanimage works perfectly
with the same user.
- Then I can launch xsane, it works... ???
+ Then I can launch xsane, and it works.
- will add info after reboot...
+ after installing 'sane' package, depending on the presence of this rules
+ file before booting, I can or not scan as single user.
+
+ Is there no mean to improve the autodetection for enduser ?

+ I don't think this is the best solution for privilege separation, as
+ saned is given to all the device to this multifunction printer (print +
+ scan + card reader).

+ Is there no mean to improve the autodetection for enduser ? It's still really
hard to imagine that everyone can do all of this...
