If you have the scanner kernel module loaded (scanner), then
there should be a file like /dev/usbscanner0, /dev/scanner0 or
/dev/usb/scanner0 and scanimage should be able to open it
without further configuration. Perhaps there is something weird with
the Suse scanner kernel module.

Do you see any message in /var/log/messages or dmesg when plugging
in the scanner or when loading the scanner kernel module?

Perhaps your libusb is a very old version. There was an issue with
a very old version of libusb (i think it was 0.1.3).

The device name in niash.conf currently does not have any effect.
