Wait a moment. Does this mean the devfs stuff to handle the access  
rights (devfs.rules or manual chown/chmod by root) does not work with  
the new usb stuff? If the answer is yes, I would see this as some kind  
of nasty bug (I don't think this shall be a showstopper, as long as  
this is fixed later).

Bye,
Alexander.
