Chris (and everyone else)
Some time ago you asked for some help investigating the usb device
permissions on OpenSuse. I didn't see if you had any responses to that,
so I don't know if the following information will be any use...
Using barry 0.15 x86_64 from OBS, btool and friends reply
Usb::Error caught: (-1, error sending control message: Operation not
permitted): Probe: GetConfiguration failed
It seems that udev has a rule in
/etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev-default-rules
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ACTION=="add", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device",
NAME="bus/usb/$env{BUSNUM}/$env{DEVNUM}", MODE="0644"
which sets the usb device to being read-only, and overrides the settings
provided in /etc/udev/rules.d/10-blackberry.rules
The workaround I have implemented is to move the blackberry rules file to
later in the sequence, and changing the rules slightly to
[/etc/udev/rules.d/65-blackberry.rules]
BUS=="usb", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", ACTION=="add", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0fca",
SYSFS{idProduct}=="0004", MODE="0660", GROUP="users", SYMLINK+="bb-%k",
RUN="/usr/sbin/bcharge -p %p"
Opensuse doesn't provide a "plugdev" group, so I'm using "users" here for
portability. In fact, in my own setup I've found the serial number of my
blackberry:
# lsusb
...
Bus 005 Device 023: ID 0fca:0004 Research In Motion, Ltd.
...
# udevinfo -a -n /dev/bus/usb/005/023 | grep 'ATTR{serial}'
and set up the rule as
... ATTR{serial}=="abcde", OWNER="myusername", MODE="0600" ...
I'd prefer to have ConsoleKit configured so that this just works, but I
haven't the foggiest about how to do that. Opensuse does use ConsoleKit,
but doesn't seem to pay attention to the file
/etc/security/console.perms.d/10-blackberry.perms
Hoping this is useful or interesting to someone.
