In hardy I had the same problem with my scanner, a scsi umax astra 1200s, while
it worked fine onder Gutsy. After doing some surfing I found the following
solution. Go to menu > administration > users and groups.
Click <Unlock>. After giving your root password click <manage groups>. Between
groups you can find <scanner>. Select it and click <properties>. Here you can
check the users you permit to scan, including yourself. Then <OK> and from that
moment Sane handels your scanner also when you are not root.
Good luck
