Humm, now scanimage -L is a bust.
[root@gene root]# scanimage -L
No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something
different,
check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by
the
sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the
documentation

Previously, sane-find-scanner had returned its results instantly,
but now hangs for about 30 seconds before returning this:
[root@gene root]# sane-find-scanner
# Note that sane-find-scanner will find any scanner that is
connected
# to a SCSI bus and some scanners that are connected to the
Universal
# Serial Bus (USB) depending on your OS. It will even find
scanners
# that are not supported at all by SANE. It won't find a scanner
that
# is connected to a parallel or proprietary port.
sane-find-scanner: found USB scanner (vendor = 0x04b8, product =
0x010f) at device /dev/usb/scanner
sane-find-scanner: found USB scanner (vendor = 0x04b8, product =
0x010f) at device /dev/usb/scanner0
sane-find-scanner: found USB scanner (vendor = 0x04b8, product =
0x010f) at device /dev/usbscanner
sane-find-scanner: found USB scanner (vendor = 0x04b8, product =

The 'scanner' module is loaded, but I've not added any options to
the modules.conf file since the vendor/model codes are compiled
into it.
Humm, lemme check the other files in /usr/local/etc/sane.d, brb.
plustek.conf had been overwritten by the install, unlike the
dll.conf, and was pointing at /dev/whatever the parallel port is.
I pointed it at /dev/usbscanner, and will try it again once all
this is sent.
