Trying to connect to a device, I get this error message: *** Error *** An error occurred in the io-library ('Could not claim the USB device'): Could not claim interface 0 (Device or resource busy). Make sure no other program (gvfs-gphoto2-volume-monitor) or kernel module (such as sdc2xx, stv680, spca50x) is using the device and you have read/write access to the device. *** Error (-53: 'Could not claim the USB device') ***
On general Linux principles, how does one go about what is keeping the device busy? How does one distinguish between "busy" and a permissions problem? I can see that the system detects the device by, say, lsusb: bus 001 device 007 ... Nikon I haven't got anywhere with "lsof", but that at that point the specifics of this system may come into play (Debian 9 installed as a Crouton target on a chromebook). Any suggestions off-hand? Thanks.
