Bug Description
The NeatReceipts Mobile Scanner model NR-030108 is not recognized by XSane/Sane in Ubuntu 8.10. The USB Product ID is not accounted for in /etc/sane.
Look for matching device:
root@ubuntu:~# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 07b3:0462 Plustek, Inc.
Copy firmware from Windows installation to Linux firmware directory
C:\Program Files\Common Files\NeatRecei
Append the following to /etc/sane.

Permissions to Scanner
Make sure that your user account is in 'scanners' group ala "grep scanner /etc/group"
Create udev rules file:
root@ubuntu:~# cat /etc/udev/
ATTRS{idVendor}
Permissions should be aligned, for example:
root@ubuntu:~# ls -la /dev/bus/
crw-rw-r-- 1 root scanner 189, 8 2008-12-28 19:06 /dev/bus/
Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
