I'm not a hacker at all so I'm not proficient in interpreting the log, but it seems that sane tries to add simultaneously a SCSI (bad) as well as a USB device (good). Trying to add SCSI seems to be the problem. So I think the solution will be to out-comment adding the scsi device, but where and how?

And finally I have the firmware /usr/local/agfafirm of which I have no idea where it has to belong and how to fit in the process.

Sorry for the trafic, but I think there is now all the information I can provide.

Thanks,
