To fix the protection problem, the file with the line similiar to

SYSFS{idVendor}=="091e", SYSFS{idProduct}=="0003", MODE="666"

(product number should be different) should go to /etc/udev/rules.d .

I always use a very high number at the start of the filename, eg. 
99-garmin.conf . If using lower numbers, the USB protection gets 
overwritten by some other udev rules (at least in Opensuse).
