That means: only root can scan - is that really what you want??
I would prefer chmod 666 /dev/sg0 to allow ordinary users to
make scans.
BTW: I also recommend for compatibility reasons:
ln /dev/sg0 /dev/sga
> find-scanner: found scanner "ULTIMA AT6 1.01" at device /dev/sg0
Is ok no failure.

Nothing happend - as I suppose.
Just to be sure: Did you start X as normal user and
the su - to become root in order to get the permission to
scan? If so: After changing the permissions you can use
xscanimage as user - no need to become root.

Host: scsi0 -> That's your SCSI-CARD.
Id: 01 -> That's the Scanners ID - preferably don't use ID 0 or 1 -
these IDs are normally reserved for HDs. Better use ID 2 and
reboot. During reboot: If you have an Adaptec-Controller:
Go in the configuration Menu and configure your Adapter.
Probably it has ID0 and ID1 reserved for HD - this might be
the origin of Problems. The links for /dev/scanner you don*t neet
to change.
Happy scanning - it should work now. :-)
