Doesn't seem to be a camera group (there is a camera user, which may affect that), no v4l and video under the dev tree. Only thing I found that changes under dev during connection is these two files:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Jul 2 13:35 /dev/char/189:389 -> ../bus/usb/004/006
crw-rw-r-T 1 root root 189, 389 Jul  2 13:35 /dev/bus/usb/004/006

So I don't think that it shows up as a camera but rather as a USB device (which makes sense as it's a depth camera that returns three images per frame with some extra related parameters, not a regular camera) Looks like I need to change something in the system setup to change the default group or something similar

Device shows up as this:
1865748.404803] usb 4-2: new high-speed USB device number 6 using ehci-pci
[1865748.537404] usb 4-2: New USB device found, idVendor=1ad2, idProduct=0075 [1865748.537410] usb 4-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0
[1865748.537413] usb 4-2: Product: 3D-SR4000
[1865748.537417] usb 4-2: Manufacturer: MESA

Thanks

    Hi All,

    I'm trying to connect a camera (Mesa Imaging Swissranger
    specifically) to a Debian unstable box. I'm getting an error that
    the user does not have permissions to open the USB device (needs
    read/write access). Couldn't find any relevant group to add my
    user to to solve the problem. Any idea as to how to grant access?

    I've manged to get some information when running as sudo although
    it still was a bit problematic, and I'd rather explore the issue
    as a regular user and not root.


Do you have a 'camera' group? Alternatively you could look for *v4l* and *video* under the /dev tree...

HTH,
