User access
To grant another user access to use the scanner, create a 'scanner'
group.
|# groupadd scanner |
Add user to the group scanner:
|# usermod -G scanner user_name |
Change group for a device:
|# chgrp scanner /dev/ugen* |
For some drivers, you also need access to the usb bus devices:
|# chgrp scanner /dev/usb* |
Also check if the permissions are sufficient, otherwise also do:
|# chmod g+rw /dev/usb* /dev/ugen* "|
Good Day,
Andreas

Hi,
put your user in the staff group and test it with chmod 777 /dev/ss0
(only for testing, chmod 777)
If its not working, its no rights Problem.
Thanks for your answer. My user is in staff group and
permissions on /dev/ss0 is 777. With root privileges, xsane runs as
expected.
If it's not a permission issue, I don't know what kind of
trouble it could be...
