...did you also "activate" (uncomment) the genesys "module" in
/etc/sane.d/dll.conf? That's sort of the master configuration file,
determining which "modules" sane actually uses to search for a scanner.

If scanimage -L works as root but not as user, check if you are in the
plugdev and the scanner group (I think that's the two that are relevant).

Best of luck,
Heiko

P.S: Just wondering: Is this actually on-topic here?
