This should only happen if you did "export SANE_DEBUG_SANEI_USB=1"
befor calling sane-find-scanner.
If you use "sane-find-scanner -v", you can see which files couldn't be
opened.

/dev/usb/scanner? doesn't exist ... no problem.

No scanners were found. Maybe the Linux kernel scanner module wasn't
loaded or couldn't detect the scanner?
