iRiver drivers working for normal user ?


Hello guys!
I have Fedora Core 3, and I have installed

libifp-0.1.0.11
ifp_gui

in order to use iRiver iFP.
Everything works fine but just under root.
Under a normal user i receive the following message:

Device is busy. (I was unable to claim its interface.)

How can I make it working also under a normal user?
Thanks, Mauro.

run the nonroot.sh script.
This will change the permissions of the USB device to 777 so that any user can use it.

Some distros are fixing this so that all USB mounts are done rw for the logged in user.
