How to do it depends on the Linux distribution which you use
and/or whether you compiled SANE by yourself from source.

For Suse Linux see
http://portal.suse.com/sdb/en/2004/10/jsmeix_scanner-setup-92.html
"libusb + resmgr + PAM"
and/or
http://portal.suse.com/sdb/en/2005/09/jsmeix_scanner-setup-100.html
"Change regarding the access permissions for USB scanners via resmgr"

Kind Regards
