[sane-devel] visioneer 7300 / gt68xx problem

[Nehpets Farnkiln]

[system:  Ubuntu and the Visioneer 7300 / gt68xx/
 
 So first, thanks to Henning for the fw file.
 
 Now I am having trouble with permissions, I think.  I can execute "scanimage" as root, but not as a user; likewise "XSane Image scanning program" produces "no devices available".  If I run "sane-troubleshoot" as root, the scanner works.  But here is an excerpt from the log file from "sane-troubleshoot" executed as a user:
 
 ...
 [gt68xx] sane_init: config file line 203: trying to attach `usb 0x04a7 0x0444'
 [gt68xx] attach: start: devp != NULL, may_wait = 0
 [gt68xx] attach: trying to open device `libusb:001:002'
 [gt68xx] gt68xx_device_new: enter
 [gt68xx] gt68xx_device_new:: leave: ok
 [gt68xx] gt68xx_device_open: enter: dev=0x8148958
 [gt68xx] gt68xx_device_open: sanei_usb_open failed: Access to resource has been
 denied
 [gt68xx] attach: couldn't open device `libusb:001:002': Access to resource has been denied
  ...
 
 Other info:
 
 Synaptic put the following files in directories different from what the gt68xx.man says they should be (e.g. "/usr/share/" instead of "/usr/local/share/"); I don't know if that's a problem. 
 
 1) "cis3R5B1.fw" is located at "/usr/share/sane/gt68xx/".
 Permissions are -r--r--r--.
 
 2) "gt68xx.conf" is located at "/etc/sane.d/".
 Permissions are -rw-r--r--.
 And I added a "firmware" line like so:
 ############################################################
 # Autodetect Visioneer OneTouch 7300
 usb 0x04a7 0x0444
 firmware "/usr/share/sane/gt68xx/cis3R5B1.fw"
 ############################################################
 
 3) "libsane-gt68xx.a":  There is no static library (".a"), but there is one named "libsane-gt68xx.la" located at "/usr/lib/sane/".  Is ".la" a weird type of static library?
 Permissions are -rw-r--r--.
 
 4) "libsane-gt68xx.so.1" and "libsane-gt68xx.so.1.0.15" are both  located at "/usr/lib/sane/".
 Permissions are -rw-r--r--.
 
Also I've attached the log sane-troubleshoot log run as a user, not root.
 Thanks for your help.
