+# This script changes the permissions and ownership of a USB device under
+# /proc/bus/usb to grant access to this device to users in the scanner group.
+#
+# Ownership is set to root:scanner, permissions are set to 0660.
+#
+# Arguments :
+# -----------
+# ACTION=[add|remove]
+# DEVICE=/proc/bus/usb/BBB/DDD
+# TYPE=usb
+
+# latest hotplug doesn't set DEVICE on 2.6.x kernels
+if [ -z "$DEVICE" ] ; then
