<p dir="ltr">ls /dev/ before and after connecting camera let you determine which /dev/ nodes are creared.<br>
ls -l /dev/something gives you user and group this device node created under.<br>
id [username] gives you in which groups this user enlisted.<br>
Add this user to group that have read/write access to node.<br>
If unfortunately device node under root:root you'll have to mess with udev rules.</p>

Hi All,<br>
<br>
I'm trying to connect a camera (Mesa Imaging Swissranger specifically) to a Debian unstable box. I'm getting an error that the user does not have permissions to open the USB device (needs read/write access). Couldn't find any relevant group to add my user to to solve the problem. Any idea as to how to grant access?<br>
<br>
I've manged to get some information when running as sudo although it still was a bit problematic, and I'd rather explore the issue as a regular user and not root.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
<br>
