Are you in the scanner group?

Investigate opening up a shell, and typing groups.

If you are not in the scanner group, as root, or with sudo, type adduser 
"yourusername" scanner .

Then log out, log in and retry.

Also, a quick test: try to use it as root.

Btw, i use it sometimes on an imac with etch together with xsane ( 
apt-get install xsane and you should have everything you need ) and 
works fine.

Ciao.
