Go to /dev (as root) and open up the permissions on ttyUSB0. Then you can access USB0 without being root. The default is rw access for root only. I had to do a similar thing when accessing ttyS0 with my K2. Unfortunately, every time I reboot, I have to do this all over again. I probably need to put it in a startup file somewhere.

Brendan, this was way too simple! I found that I had to execute k3util as root, otherwise it wouldn't open the ttyUSB0 port.

I performsed a download of the latest firmware without any hitches.



Thanks for the tip, John. Works like a champ now. Sometimes I forget about permissions and ownership. Have a great weekend!
