By default, SANE generates a udev rules file like this:

ACTION!="add", GOTO="libsane_rules_end"
SUBSYSTEM!="usb_device", GOTO="libsane_rules_end"

# Hewlett-Packard ScanJet 4100C
SYSFS{idVendor}=="03f0", SYSFS{idProduct}=="0101", MODE="660", GROUP="scanner"
[...]
LABEL="libsane_rules_end"

Does this still work?

Bye,
