Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: udev
Files belonging to the usbfs file system on Edgy and Feisty all belong
to root:root. This needs to be changed manually to make use of usbfs
from non-root programmes (e.g. VirtualBox's virtual USB).
Suggested fix:
1) Add the group "usbdrv" to the system by default.
2) modify /etc/udev/rules.d/40-permissions.rules as follows:
# USB devices (usbfs replacement)
--SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device", MODE="0664"
++SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device", GROUP="usbdrv", MODE="0664"
** Affects: udev (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed

Edgy and Feisty have no group for usbfs files
