Description of problem: Kernel 2.6.23.1-21.fc7 causes error message "An error occurred in the io-library ('Could not claim the USB device')" to be displayed when attempting to upload images from a usb digital camera as non-root user. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.23.1-21.fc7 (possibly all 2.6.23.xxx kernels) How reproducible: Apparently always, 2.6.22.9-91 & 2.6.21-1.3194 work fine. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Upgrade to 2.6.23.1-21.fc7 kernel 2. Attempt to access usb digital camera as non-root user 3. Actual results: Error message displayed, no non-root access to camera Expected results: Images should be accessible Additional info: Apparently hacking udev rules can allow access, but this dosen't seem wise.
