iscan-2.19.0-4.c2

I've been using this version of iscan for some time with no problems. I last 
used it on 5-11 with no problems. when I tried to use it yesterday, it would 
show an unconfigured version of the scanner (when logging on as user) for the 
scanner selection, could access scanner, no other choice. If I log on as root, 
I get the epkowa configured version. If I go into YaST -->hardware-->scanner I 
see the two scanners. It will not let me delete the unconfigured one. It 
appears to be a permission problem, but I'm not sure where. I reported it to 
AVASYA tech support encase it is related to the udev problem. 

I checked the three .conf files in /etc/sane.d (epson.conf. epson2.conf, 
dll.conf and epkowa.conf) and all have same authorities. I do not see any 
.iscan file under user~. 

Question where or what script determines which printer to use? No updates 
since 5-9, they were firefox related. 

Another ideas?
