Well, I changed the mustek_usb.conf file (the device Message from xsane talks 
about mustek_usb:libusb:003:002) from autodetect to the line above, but than 
scanimage is unable ot recongnize it.
If I start xsane with my tv card, I am able to "scan" pictures, so xsane alone 
works.
But setenforce 0 does not help, I typed it as root, tried to open xsane as 
user, and got the same error as written in my old messages.
