Comment 6 for bug 8241

OK -- problem solved. Thanks for helping me through this, and sorry it turned
out not to be a real bug. All I needed to do was

sudo chmod 777 /proc/usb/001/006

I'm I really stupid, or is there an easier way to do this, or _should_ this be
more obvious. I'm just thinking in terms of usibility, could it be possible to
just plug a scanner in as a normal user and have it work out of the box?

Thanks a lot for your help,

Sam
