save to Desktop, perhaps I should have tried saving to a root directory
... The urgency has passed, another scanner was coaxed into working with
an Apple something. Now I just want to fix it since it has always worked
from new, put aside for a year while a new floor was installed, until

Or try doing "chmod a+w /dev/bus/001/006" (replace with the correct
numbers if you've replugged or rebooted since your post).
.
After some trial and error I wound up doing chmod 775 /dev/bus/usb but
stilt not detected.
It used to be we had the GUI for users and groups and I would have
looked there for a likely fix, that will be missed along with Alacarte
which I could use to replace some of the cryptic names in the menu.
There's no good reason for the dash, just I've always done that, another
