[sane-devel] phpSANE question

I've never worked with phpSANE, but I can take a guess. PHP scripts
run as the apache user, and the apache user does not have permissions
to talk to the device files. Run scanimage -L as the user apache runs
as, and see if that's true. If so, look to make some udev or hal rule
changes.
