Yes - I'm on 2.6.9 at the mo', and I also got rid of devfs (I'm on
Gentoo). But I think that the permissions are OK because 'scanimage' works
fine on the LS-1000. Also, the debug trace seems to show that xsane is
able to open the device. Here are the permissions on the relevant devices:

crw-rw-rw-  1 bhepple disk 21, 2 Jan  9 08:19 /dev/sg2
crw-rw-rw-  1 bhepple disk 21, 3 Jan  9 08:19 /dev/sg3

- I changed them to be owned by me, "just in case".

I created those device files by MKDEV rather than by using sysfs/udev so
it's possible that there's something amiss there - I am still in the
process of moving from devfs to full sysfs and the next step is for me to
remove all the old /dev files and let sysfs/udev take care of it for me. I
expect chaos will reign for a while - but I don't seriously suspect that
of being my current problem.


Thanks


Bob
