[Bug 94597] Settings for Logitech Optical Trackman unavailable

[yacoob]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kde-systemsettings

In mouse settings, I see a tab for 'Cordless Optical Trackman' - which
is the trackball I'm using. However, the settings are grayed out, and
below I see the following message:

"You have a Logitech Mouse connected, and libusb was found at compile
time, but it was not possible to access this mouse. This is probably
caused by a permissions problem - you should consult the manual on how
to fix this."

Problem is, it doesn't specify *which* device's permissions or *which*
manual should we consult :) I tried to strace the application, and found
that it's trying to get to /dev/bus/usb/* files. Still, I believe it
should be configured by default (best :) or at least the message should
be more explanatory...

Regards,

KT.
