Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kdebase-kde4

When starting HP-Toolbox it gives an error saying that:
"ERROR: Device not found. Please check the connection and power-on device", 
while the HP device is shown in the left column.

The device is hooked up, powered on and fully functional.

If one, however, launches hp-toolbox as root:
sudo hp-toolbox

The tool works properly and can communicate with the HP device without a
problem.

Clearly there is some sort of permission issue here that keeps the tool
from communicating properly with the device when used in regular user
mode.

hp-toolbox version 2.8.2
device manager version 11
Kubuntu Hardy x86_64 completely updated

** Affects: kdebase-kde4 (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
