Did you install sane and xsane using YaST2 or from source? Often the two methods will put things in different places and that can lead to conflicts if you have two versions installed. It sounds like you installed sane-backends-1.0.11 from source and xsane from rpm using YaST2. Removing sane-backends-1.0.8 with YaST2 probably removed xsane as well, since xsane depends on sane-backends. If you did install any of sane-backends, sane-frontends or xsane from source I suggest you remove them by going into their respective source directories and (as root) typing 'make uninstall'. Then get the latest rpms you can find and reinstall them using YaST2. This may put xsane in /usr/bin instead of /usr/local/bin. If so you will need to change your icon's properties accordingly.
