Doesn't that sort of defeat the object of being able to hotplug USB devices? Plus, I could use sudo to get round the problem, but think there must be a better way???
Well, yes, su root defeats the object but it works. That's why I plan to write a setuid script to avoid the problem. Unless we find an existing solution.
