Hi

a would like to up my scanner automatically ofr regular user, so I create theses 
lines in devfs.conf:
link	uscanner0	scanner
perm	uscanner0	0660
own	uscanner0	root:scanner

I create the group scanner and add the user in it, but it doesn't work. When I 
plug the scanner I get:
$ ls -l /dev/uscanner0
crw-r--r--  1 root  operator    0, 124 May 22 21:25 /dev/uscanner0

And what I would like is:
crw-rw-r--  1 root  scanner    0, 124 May 22 21:25 /dev/uscanner0

How can I achieve this?

Thanks
Sebastien
