Description Nathanael Noblet 2009-12-30 17:14:02 UTC
Description of problem:
When I plug in my blackberry, it starts charging, but as root I have to grant myself privileges on the usb device for barry and syncing tools to function.

The cause of this is that access control has been moved back from hal to udev.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Plug in blackberry device
2. btool -l
3.
  
Actual results:

Usb::Error caught: (-1, error sending control message: Operation not permitted): Probe: GetConfiguration failed


Expected results:

Blackberry devices found:
Device ID: 0x807ba0. PIN: 301f6cf5, Description: RIM 8100 Series Colour CDMA Handheld


Additional info:

This is relatively simple to fix. It requires the following file

/lib/udev/rules.d/69-blackberry.rules

ACTION!="add", GOTO="blackberry_end"
SUBSYSTEM!="usb", GOTO="blackberry_end"
ATTR{idVendor}=="0fca", ENV{ACL_MANAGE}="1"

LABEL="blackberry_end"

This should fix it for all blackberries, as long as all blackberries have the same vendor id...

This has been sent upstream as well.
