sane - scanner question

["Dr.-Ing. C. Hurschler" <hurschler@gmx.de>]

I'm trying to get my scanner working.  It's listed under /proc/bus/usb/ as 
shown below.  Hotplug loads libusbscanner with some chown errors also shown 
below.  When I start kooka, I'm not presented with my scanner as an optional 
input device.  How can I further trace this problem.  I guess theres 
something wrong with the way the hotplug script is trying to change 
permissions on the usb device, but I don't really know where to go from 
there.  Hotplug, sane and libsane are from unstable.

Thanks,

Chris
