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.
Can you please give me the output of "polkit-action|grep device-access"
?
