Just FYI, I have the following line in rc.local. I know its a bad idea, but it 
allows users to write to usb devices without being in the root group. You 
could do it the right way, probably by creating a usb group and using that 
gid for this.. but hey.. I'm lazy and this works ;-)

mount -o remount,devmode=666 /proc/bus/usb
