Hello. I have an HP ScanJet 5, and am able to scan images by explicitly
pointing (x)scanimage to the scanner, but they will not find it on their
own (rendering the gimp plugin unusable). I set SANE_DEBUG(DLL&HP) to 255,
and this is the output I received:

[jello@local ~]$ scanimage -L
[sanei_init_debug]: Setting debug level of dll to 255.
[dll] adding backend hp
[dll] loading backend hp
[dll] dlopen()ing `/usr/lib/sane/libsane-hp.so.1'
[dll] init: initializing backend `hp'
[sanei_init_debug]: Setting debug level of hp to 255.
[hp] init called
[hp] get_devices called
[hp] scsi_new: open failed (Invalid argument)
[hp] scsi: Can't open scsi device
[dll] exiting
[dll] calling backend `hp's exit function
[hp] exit called
[jello@local ~]$

I'm using sane 1.00, and I tried this under Linux kernels 2.0.36, and
2.1.129 with the same results. If I run find-scanner it finds my scanner
right away. The scanner is hooked up to an (onboard) Adaptec 2940UW, and
the machine is a dual PII 333 (not sure if that makes a difference) Thanks
for any help you could offer.
