Hello Sohaib, from http://sdr.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/rtl-sdr:
If the device can't be opened, make sure you have the appropriate rights to access the device (install udev-rules from the repository, or run it as root).
The osmo project has for your conveniences generated a rule that assigns correct access rights to your device as soon as you plug it in. So in your rtl-sdr build folder, run
sudo make install-udev-rules to install them. Hopefully that fixed your problem, Greetings, Marcus M
