USB scanner permission

After one of the latest rounds of updates of FC8 I find I can no longer
use xsane as a normal user: it shows the "Looking for devices" pop-up
but never finds my USB scanner. If I run xsane as "root" it works fine,
so apparently this is a permission problem.
How do I determine which device file in /dev is being used for the
scanner? This used to be simple before the days of udev...
