Thanks for the help on this one, here's what worked for me. Running
latest Intrepid Ibex, I found that qlandkarte couldn't talk to my
Garmin.
$ uname -a
Linux mylap 2.6.27-11-generic #1 SMP Thu Jan 29 19:24:39 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
$ lsusb | grep Garmin
Bus 003 Device 003: ID 091e:0003 Garmin International GPSmap (various models)
$ ls -l /dev/bus/usb/003/003
crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 258 2009-02-01 14:07 /dev/bus/usb/003/003
So I created a file /etc/udev/rules.d/51-garmin.rules with the following
contents:
SYSFS{idVendor}=="091e", SYSFS{idProduct}=="0003", GROUP="plugdev"
I rebooted, although looking at the README in that directory, it
probably wasn't necessary. When I connected the GPS, the device now
looks like:-
$ ls -l /dev/bus/usb/003/003
crw-rw-r-- 1 root plugdev 189, 258 2009-02-01 15:31 /dev/bus/usb/003/003
At this point I could connect to the GPS successfully. Hope this helps.
