Re: [opensuse] USB permissions screwed after last online update

Hello everybody!

I just noticed that I can't access my digital camera or my scanner as a non-priviledged after the last online update...
The only way to do it is, as you guessed, being logged in as root... which is not what I like...

Is there any place I should take a look at or a way to fix the permissions?

TIA,
Martin



I haven't experienced that problem, however one thing you might do is
check to see what group those devices are assigned to. You may just
have to assign the user to whatever group they are, provided it's not root.
