Bug Description
I've an agfa snapscan 310 scsi connected to de back of an Epson Filmscan 200.
The Epson Filmscan 200 is connected on a scsi card.
Both scanners are recognized on win xp and on linux mandrake 9.2 in vuescan 8.4.31...
In Ubuntu feisty Fawn 2.6.20-16-generic (under Gnome), it appears that the devices are changing in "/dev/sg*"
After a reboot, only the Agfa is recognized but if I change an other "sg*" other than the "sg*" of the scanner Agfa or of the cdrom, and I put it in scanner group, both scanners are recognized for this session if I restart vuescan 8.4.31...
The problem is that what is modified in "/dev/sg*" in a ubuntu session for the Epson is changed when I reboot the system and then, the Epson will not be recognized.
For example, after reboot the followings commands give this:
crw-rw---- 1 root root 21, 0 2007-09-26 17:56 /dev/sg0
crw-rw---- 1 root root 21, 1 2007-09-26 17:56 /dev/sg1
crw-rw---- 1 root cdrom 21, 2 2007-09-26 17:56 /dev/sg2
crw-rw---- 1 root cdrom 21, 3 2007-09-26 17:56 /dev/sg3
crw-rw---- 1 root scanner 21, 4 2007-09-26 15:57 /dev/sg4
crw-rw---- 1 root root 21, 5 2007-09-26 15:57 /dev/sg5

Only the Agfa is recognized by this way in sg4.
I close vuescan and I do:
I go to /dev/sg5 ==>Properties ==> Autorisations ==> and I change the group from root to scanner.
Then restart vuescan and both scanners are recognized!!!
I shutdown the computer, power on for both scanners before; power on for the computer, starting ubuntu and:
crw-rw---- 1 root scanner 21, 0 2007-09-26 18:24 /dev/sg0
crw-rw---- 1 root root 21, 1 2007-09-26 18:24 /dev/sg1

Only one scanner (Agfa) and not on the same place as before...
I go to /dev/sg1 ==>Properties ==> Autorisations ==> and I change the group from root to scanner.
Then restart vuescan and both scanners are recognized!!!
Have you an idea to fix it?
Thanks for reply.
Hubert Maes.
The usage of vuescan seems to be necessary because the epson filmscan 200 is not recognized by xsane anyway...
