Hello all,
          I just downloaded a software from sourceforge that enables
me to communicated with my portable mp3 player on my Suse system. The
only problem is that I am obliged to run as root cause it needs to
access the usb port. Since the software doesn't mount the player as a
mass storage device, I know the solution os not to modify the fstab
file. What I want to know is how do I give privileges to the usb port
to a non-root user ?

Thanks in advance.

Walter
