Just joined the list because I can't find an answer to this problem. I've searched using google and turn up the same problem but I never found a resolution.
I had saned working with my Redhat Linux 7.2 system but then I upgraded to RHL 7.3. Now I'm getting "scanner.c: open_scanner(*): Unable to access minor data" where * is 1 to 15. I've confirmed that the device is known to the kernel (cat /proc//bus/usb/devices) and used modprobe with the proper arguments and there is a /dev/usb/scanner0 through 15. Should the ownership and permissions be different that root:root and crw------- ? This is driving me crazy. Have it working then upgrade the backends etc. and have it break.
