In checking out the latest RC of digikam I've run into a usb permission
problem I cannot resolve. As a normal user, digikam will auto detect the
camera (HP C320). Yet when it tries to download the images it errors out
saying to make sure the camera is plugged in and turned on.
As root running digikam there are no problems. Auto detect works as before and
images can be downloaded, etc.
So I tried changing the permissions for camera
in /etc/udev/permissions.d/50-udev.permissions form;
camera*:root:root:0666
to
camera*:root:users:0666
adding a normal user to the users groug, then restarted udev and no change. I
looked at the relevant files in /etc/hotplug and hotplug.d but did not see
anything that helps. I am reasonably certain the kernel driver being used for
this system is uhci_hcd.
At this point I do not know where else to look.
