[Bug 332750] New: HP scanner only works as root
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=332750 Summary: HP scanner only works as root Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: i586 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: lundbymads@gmail.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- I have tried to get the scanner in a HP Photosmart C3180 USB multi-function printer to work with the hpaio driver. I actually succeeded, but the scanner only works, when I'm logged in as root user. Both Kooka and xsane doesn't seem to access the scanner in "normal" user mode. Where is the bug, and could you release please release a patch? I obviously seems to be an access permission issue. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I suspect bug#309933 and bug#309933 are related if not duplicates.
I ment bug#309933 and bug#332750 may be related. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Mads, could you please confirm the hplip patch fixes this issue also for you?
It doesn't fix the issue. On none of my pc's. Unfortunately. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Can both of you activate the "set -x" line in /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/test_and_set_scanner_access_permissions and then run it as root as /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/test_and_set_scanner_access_permissions 2>/tmp/out and attach /tmp/out text/plain attachments to this bug.
I did this as well... However after doing so, the scanner (OfficeJet G85) is now available to non-root. So I cannot reproduce this bug anymore. To be honest, I don't know exactly what fixed my problem, but it seems like running /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/test_and_set_scanner_access_permissions fixed the problem. It could also be that that the security patch + reboot (i.e. restart hplip) solved the problem. Even though I claimed in comment #12 that the security patch (alone) did not fix the problem. I may be wrong here. If you are still interested in the output of the command let me know, but I don't think it is that interesting anymore since my system works now... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

When you manually remove packages which are installed in the default system, arbitrary problems can happen.
Instead of when, try if... I don't recall changing or deleting the usbutils package. I did a fresh install from the KDE cd. But who knows... Anyway... I'm on the road (again), so I can't test the scanner. Happy to see the RESOLVED tag, though... :) :) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
