Hi,

I have been playing with an USB camera. I've run into the following
problem:
The (default?) permissions for /proc/bus/usb/001/011 (and others) are
0644. This makes the ioctl (see attached trace to fail). So I have to:
either chmod the usb device file each time I unplug and replug the camera
OR make the pencam program SUID root, which is neither comfortable.
Is there a way to affect the default permissions for the USB devices?

regards
Kees
