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
Status: New
