That is a basic permissions problem. Look at the permissions on that node. Some folks run their libusb app as root to get around that, but that's obviously a security problem. A better measure will vary by OS. My system uses udev, so I created a udev rule that sets permissions to something else (which I can access as a normal user) when that node is created for my particular device. _______________________________________________ libhid-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/libhid-discuss
