My Epson Perfection 4490 Photo scanner is once again only working as root. It works fine as a normal usr in F8 and I think it did in F9 Alpha. Root can access the scanner using either iscan or xsane. My normal user account can not with either. This scanner uses the epkowa backend provided by the iscan package from Epson. I cannot detect any differences between my F8 and my F9 Beta setups.
