- # can access it from user space. (Replace camera with the name of the
- # group you want to have access to the cameras.)
- #
- # Note that for this script to work, you'll need all of the following:
- # a) a line in the file /etc/hotplug/usermap that corresponds to the
- # camera you are using. You can get the correct lines for all cameras
- # supported by libgphoto2 by running
- # $ print-camera-list usb-usermap usbcam
- # b) a group "camera" where all users allowed access to the
- # camera are listed
- # c) a Linux kernel supporting hotplug and usbdevfs
- # d) the hotplug package (http://linux-hotplug.sourceforge.net/)
- #
- # In the usermap file, the first field "usb module" should be named
- # "usbcam" like this script.
