That's the wrong file. The device file would have been '012' in that directory. I've done a "yum groupinstall XFCE" here for a very brief test, but when logging into XFCE (albeit from GDM), the user access ACL entry on the device file is set automatically when plugging in the scanner. So, that hasn't been enough to reproduce the problem. Perhaps just the XFCE Spin is affected?

       In an off-list discussion with "g" I realized that I could run
       another "virgin" instance of F-16/64 from the XFCE Live Spin on
       the flash drive, the same one these installations are derived
       from. Why did it take so long to think of that? Old age perhaps?

       I had to install xsane, tried that, got the same error message
       about no device available until I installed "yum -y install
       sane-backends-drivers-scanners."

       Once that was done on box9 the HP-5370c scanner works as User
       bobg as it always has.

       That seems to bear out the hypothesis that something else I've
       installed is interfering with xsane.

       Perhaps yum removing and re-installing sane is the next thing to
       try if yum remove doesn't take out other peripheral stuff that
       is needed elsewhere.
