  Well, during installation I had some trouble with my video card (after
  inserting an ethernet card) because of irq conflicts and changed the order
  of the pci-cards. Finally I deselected usb support in my bios (which is no
  problem for me). But I'm not shure whether this is the cause of my problems
  with sane. The second scsi device, a cd-r writer, is working correctly. So
  SCSI seams to be o.k. Or is it possible, that only the scanner is affected
  while the cd-r writer works fine?

  One more change I forgot to mention: I am using win4lin, that means I have a
  patched kernel. But I tried also booting with the SuSE standard kernel
  (2.2.19 I think) an get the same results.

  Yes, sg0 ist read and writable. (Also user is member of group "disk".) No, it
  doesn't work as root.
