Bug Description
The CX5900 when plugged in doesn't get the permissions appropriate to a scanner. The fix is to add this to /etc/udev/

Similar problem with the Epson Stylus CX7800 all-in-one -- SANE simply doesn't seem to know it's there. Adding a line to /etc/udev/ rules.d/ 45-libsane. rules (vendor = 04b8, product = 081f), however, did NOT fix this problem for me, even after a system restart.
