I am haaving trouble getting my usb scanner to work with sane under slack 10. Basicaly the scanner is not detected sort of. scanimage -L gives no scanner found but sane-find-scanner correctly finds and identifies it (found USB scanner (vendor=0x03f0, product=0x2f11) at libusb:001:002). I don't think it is a permissions problem as I get identical results as root. I have tried adding an entry to /etc/hotplug/usb/libsane.usermap but this made no difference.
libusb is version 0.1.8 sane is version 1.0.14
Any ideas?

I have a similar problem with GPhoto and my Canon A40 on USB. It can see the camera, but then aborts claiming it can't see the camera if I try to list the images in it.
I haven't spent much time trying to solve it yet because the camera times out and turns off after a while, and I can read the compact flash card in my USB compact flash reader.
I hope I don't have the same problem when I try my Canon scanner!
