I put myself in group usb, but gphoto2 still does this...

*** Error (-53: 'Could not claim the USB device') ***

root works fine though. :(

/proc isn't a real filesystem, you can't change rights, ownership, etc on it.

Do you have any idea what device (/dev file) corresponds to your USB device? Type 'dmesg' and look at the end of that after you insert the device, it should say something.

weird, because as soon as i changed those settings in /proc/bus/usb, it started working for me as a user....
