It does. So your scanner is on /dev/sga. You could link
this to /dev/scanner (( ln -s /dev/sga /dev/scanner ))
Please make sure, that you have set permissions for /dev/sga.

I don't know what's going on with kernel 2.3.5 but I would suggest:
Don't use bleeding edge testing kernels for testing wether your
scanner works. Use better 2.2.10.
Make sure, that you have no other instance of sane installed.
(This version might not be overwritten by the new version, that'
especially dangerous with the SuSE distribution)
Now comment out in /usr/local/etc/sane.d/dll.conf all scanners
except artec.
Use the little programm "find-scanner" that comes with sane.
It should find your scanner.
Then you might want to do another test:
scanimage -h -d artec:/dev/sga
it should report possible commands you can give to your
scanner.
If it works:
Try xscanimage.
If it works: OK - if not: Please report on what step it failed
and what error-messages you got.
