That shouldn't be necessary; this was fixed some time ago in the hotplug
package.  If you remove the sg module from /etc/modules, it should be loaded
automatically when your scanner is detected.

Please try it; if it doesn't work, file a bug against the 'hotplug'
package, and tell us what is in the appropriate 'type' file in
/sys/class/scsi_generic.
