Can someone please look at this tool? It affects all HP all-in-one users out there.
** Summary changed: - Kubuntu Hardy: HP-Toolbox only works when used as root + Hardy: HP-Toolbox only works when used as root ** Description changed: - Binary package hint: kdebase-kde4 + Binary package hint: both in KDE and Gnome: hp-toolbox 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 ** Description changed: - Binary package hint: both in KDE and Gnome: hp-toolbox + Binary package hint: Hardy both in KDE and Gnome: hp-toolbox When starting HP-Toolbox it gives an error saying that: "ERROR: Device not found.
