I think this was my smartmedia reader slot which did not have a card 
inserted.  See new outputs below without this error.

=========
I believe 3-1 is the scanner since I have to chmod /proc/bus/usb/003/002 
in FC2 to get the scanner to work.
In addition to the scanner, my smartmedia card and my USB key show up in 
Hardware Browser

=========
The numbers are different here than in FC2.  The scanner is not to be 
found by root with sane-find-scanner, but the smartmedia card and USB 
key do show up in hardware browser.
