Regarding "kooka, xscanimage and others are missing.":
The frontends are installed via patterns depending
on what you selected as "desktop" during installation
so that the frontend matches to your desktop.
It should be as follows:
KDE => kooka (kdegraphics3-scan RPM)
Gnome => xsane (xsane RPM)
Plain X => xscanimage (sane-frontends RPM)
This worked for me in the past and also for openSUSE 11.0
(I selected KDE3 and got kdegraphics3-scan selected by default).
Unfortunately the whole pattern stuff is a bit obscure
so that I don't know why exactly it didn't work for you
(/var/log/YaST2/y2logRPM might help).
Therefore this part looks like a "patterns" bug
and I cahnge the component accordingly.
Regarding "Gimp has no scanner in the Acquire Menue."
Only the xsane RPM and the sane-frontends RPM provide a plugin
for scanner access directly in Gimp.
Therefore when you have KDE as desktop, there is by default
no Gimp scanner plugin installed which is bug #422558.
