[Bug 48871] Re: Only works as root
Fix above works for me. Makes sense that the fix would be for udev rather than libifp; although I guess it's possible for other packages to provide /etc/udev/rules.d/* files. So libifp could just have a standalone stanza in a new rules.d file with the permissions fix. Still I think it would be better for it to be changed in udev, since not all iriver users necessarily will use libifp. -- Only works as root https://launchpad.net/bugs/48871 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 48871] Re: Only works as root
This is still a problem in edgy and feisty. Does this fix need to be made to udev or libifp? I'd be happy to do the work of uploading a patch, just point me in the right direction. --Dave -- Only works as root https://launchpad.net/bugs/48871 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 48871] Re: Only works as root
Thanks for your comment Jonathan. It has helped me with the permissions issue. To stop rhythmbox from automatically popping up, go to System-Preferences-Removable Drives and Media, select the multimedia tab, and clear the box that says Play music files when connected. -- Only works as root https://launchpad.net/bugs/48871 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 48871] Re: Only works as root
I can confirm this bug. I have found that immediately upon plugging my iRiver iFP-780 player into a usb port the rhythmbox application is launched automatically. However there is no obvious way to access my player from rhythmbox. From a terminal the output is as follows: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ifp ls Device is busy. (I was unable to claim its interface.) [EMAIL PROTECTED] sudo ifp ls Password: wrn: [ifp_delta] interesting, there were only 4 bytes. Detected: model IFP-780, firmware 1.21, battery =[], delta 1.0.0.0 ... Browsing the Debian bug database I found this bug reported there as Bug Report #355051. The bug is marked as closed with the upload of libifp version 1.0.0.2-3 The bug report also contains this comment: You also need udev 0.079-080+1, which contains the up-to-date udev rules for ensuring the device has the proper permissions. Is there any chance of getting these bug fixes into the dapper repositories? I can access my player using sudo but obviously I would prefer not to use root privileges if I don't have to.
