I assume you are referring to

  http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/sane-devel/2005-February/012985.html

In

  http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/sane-devel/2005-February/012992.html

Gerhard says the patch has been applied, so this should be in as of
sane-backends-1.0.16.  However, some of the udev stuff may not be in
sync until sane-backends-1.0.18, so you may want to add:

  SYSFS{idVendor}=="04b8", SYSFS{idProduct}=="0813", MODE="664", GROUP="scanner"

to your /etc/udev/libsane.rules (or /etc/udev/rules.d/libsane.rules)
and reconnect the device.

Hope this helps,
