Ok, so now I get it, I just had to follow the "Dapper" rule in the adb docs.
http://androidcommunity.com/forums/f4/how-to-install-apps-using-adb-4482/ Since my system makes a usb_device, that is the subsystem rule I have to use, instead of usb. I guess Ubuntu removed procbususb in newer versions (I found a lot of reports of VMware failing because of dependency) About the procbususb, to check, run `mount |grep procbus` to see if you have it mounted. So the moral of the story would be to add both rules if you are not sure. That is at least more restrictive than using sudo/root. My personal prefence is to add android group and keep 0664 mode, then add users to adroid group. Thanks for the help.
