Oh yes, they are (and work) identically. Just couldn't figure out why I

Following Oliver's earlier advise I deleted /dev/scanner and I now skip
the 'pick a scanner' screen. Interestingly, sg1 is a link to sgb. I can
only assume that xsane is checking /dev/scanner and /dev/sg[a-h], but
not /dev/sg[0-9].
