xsane finds scanner only as root

It seems like every new test release reasserts scanner problems that
have been solved before. My scanner works fine in FC5.
I have an Epson Perfection 4490 Photo scanner which is supported by the
epkowa iscan package, providing the epkowa.conf package that allows this
scanner to work with xsane.
After installing iscan-2.0.0-0.c2, both iscan and xsane work with my
scanner if I execute them as root. However, if I try to execute them as
a normal user, the scanner is not found.
Does anyone know the correct fix for this problem, or should I open a
new bug report?
Thanks.
Gerry
