Seems, on the failing openSUSE 11.1 system, HAL properly detects the
device as a scanner:
    scsi.target = 6  (0x6)  (int)
    scsi.type = 'scanner'  (string)
    ...
    info.capabilities = {'scsi_generic', 'scanner'} (string list)

So it looks like a failure in the HAL tool which applies the ACLs.
