1) Yes, I have to do it every single time after login, logout and
relogin.  It is not convenient.  Any solution?
2) What is the difference between 0777 and 0666
3) My scanner is connected to a SCSI card besides the CDWriter is also
simulated as scsi connection.  That are all SCSI devices in my PC
4) How to create a new group for scanner

1) Update-modules is not in my system.  Type update-modules could not
find it.
2) Neither modutils directory nor the file 'aliases' exist

Edit  /etc/modules.conf  adding a line at the bottom

alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc
alias eth0 8139too
alias eth1 8139too
alias sound-slot-0 ymfpci
post-install sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -L
  >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
pre-remove sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -S
  >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
alias usb-controller usb-uhci
/sbin/insmod aha152x aha152x=0x140,9,7,0

Xsane could not be started because scanner not detected.
