[Bug 407529] Re: Camera (USB PTP) not accessible to non-root user
Oh, sorry for not having spotted this before. In bug 267238 you pasted your ck-list-sessions output: $ ck-list-sessions Session1: unix-user = '1000' realname = 'jamesc,,,' seat = 'Seat1' session-type = '' active = FALSE x11-display = '' x11-display-device = '' display-device = '/dev/tty1' remote-host-name = '' is-local = TRUE on-since = '2009-07-27T06:15:37.099359Z' login-session-id = '' idle-since-hint = '2009-07-27T06:16:08.001685Z' This means that you were logged in on a text console (VT1), but your X session does not have a consolekit session for some reason. Which login manager are you using? gdm and kdm get this alright, and even xdm should, though /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90consolekit . You said you are using window maker as WM, so I tentatively assign this to wdm. If you use another login manager, we can reassign. The window manager ideally registers a CK session by itself, but if not, it at least needs to run all the /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ scripts. ** Package changed: hal (Ubuntu) = wdm (Ubuntu) -- Camera (USB PTP) not accessible to non-root user https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/407529 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 407529] Re: Camera (USB PTP) not accessible to non-root user
dmesg found one USB device [10470.528029] usb 2-3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3 which supposedly is the camera (i. e. you plugged it in after starting hal in debug mode). hal then detected it correctly, and tried to apply ACLs, but there aren't any: 5783: adding ACL's for /dev/bus/usb/002/003 5783: releasing lock on /var/run/hald/acl-list I don't think that hal's ACL system is generally broken, since it does seem to work fine for some other devices: 5697: adding ACL's for /dev/sr0 5697: invoking 'setfacl -m u:1000:rw /dev/sr0' The camera device also has the proper access_control capability and is known by /usr/share/hal/fdi/preprobe/10osvendor/20-libgphoto2.fdi.
