Thanks but it did not help with 3.5.3. It turned all my USB peripheries
off and did not notice the Samsung scanner (just an integrated camera
which works anyway). After I bound it again I saw the scanner for a
moment but then it went "offline" again. I'll try what Sarah suggested
and get back to you.
