I don't know if the udev configuration file to make the USB device for the
Garmin GPS be generated with user,group,other read and write permissions
work on Ubuntu, at least for me it didn't back then.What I usually do, as I seldom transfer data to/from the GPS, is setting the USB device permissions manually every time I plug the device. For example: # lsusb Bus 005 Device 003: ID 091e:0003 Garmin International GPS (various models) # dmesg [ 1621.781686] usb 5-1: USB disconnect, device number 2 [ 1652.160316] usb 5-1: new full-speed USB device number 3 using ohci_hcd # ls -lrt /dev/bus/usb/005/003 crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 514 Nov 17 22:20 /dev/bus/usb/005/003 As your can see , the USB device doesn't have write permissions for anyone but the root user and group. Just give your user or anybody write permissions, and you should be OK: (I use ACL) # setfacl -m u:username:rw /dev/bus/usb/005/003 # chmod 666 /dev/bus/usb/005/003 Next, if everythign else is right, you should be able to access the Garmin GPS from QLGT for both download and upload data to it.
