Thank you for your message.  I have added the following:

# AAO
# detect HP ScanJet 3300C
attach 20 {
       device-name "ugen[0-9].[0-9]";
       match "vendor" "0x03f0";
       match "product" "0x0205";
       action "usb_devaddr=3D`echo $device-name | sed 's#^ugen##'` && \
               chown root:saned /dev/usb/${usb_devaddr}.* && \
               chmod 0660 /dev/usb/${usb_devaddr}.* && \
               su saned -c '/usr/local/bin/scanbuttond \
               -s /usr/local/etc/scanbuttond/buttonpressed.sh \
               -S /usr/local/etc/scanbuttond/initscanner.sh \
               -b /usr/local/lib/libscanbtnd-backend_epson.so'";
};

# AAO
# remove HP ScanJet 3300C
detach 20 {
       device-name "ugen[0-9].[0-9]";
       match "vendor" "0x03f0";
       match "product" "0x0205";
       action "/usr/bin/pkill scanbuttond";
};



to file /etc/devd.conf and xsane still tells me that I do not have any devi=
ces?

I restarted devd service
# /etc/rc.d/devd restart
and I get :

quadcore# /etc/rc.d/devd restart
devd not running?
Starting devd.
devd: devd already running, pid: 801
/etc/rc.d/devd: WARNING: failed to start devd

I have also added myself to the "saned" group:

quadcore# cat /etc/group | grep 'saned'
saned:*:194:olivares

What else do I need to do?

Thank you for your help & suggestions.

Regards,

Antonio
