With USB scanner support taken out of the 2.6.x kernels, libusb and xsane/sane can't see my scanner,
It depends on which kernel you are using, I had problems with 2.6.4, but 2.6.8.1 works fine. You will also have to make sure the user can read and write to /proc/bus/usb/xxx/xxx where xxx/xxx is the device numbers for your scanner.
