MY APOLOGIES. I must have been sleeping when I tried it before because
everything you typed here worked today...

SO I added sg to /etc/modules 
and sure enough, /dev/sg0 and /dev/sg1 were created AFTER I rebooted. 
(I couldn't see how to hotplug them in "hot.")

Strangely, Hotplug put the two devices in different groups -- the CD-R
went into the disk group and the scanner went into the cdrom group  --
but I just realized there was a CD in the burner so probably that's
why. I'll just add the user to the disk group in case it happens
again.

Thank you for your assistance!

P.S.: WHY are all the command-line tools gone from the sane package? I
know you only need it once, but sane-find-scanner is very helpful when
trying to get a scanner working.
