[TiLP-devel] tilp-2 issues persist with updated libusb

[Mike M. <ak...@gm...>]

Okay:

Although the DirectLink cable hasn't ever worked for me, I'll trust
your word that it was working at one time.  Since you state that
nothing has changed in the related tilibs code, I decided to try
different versions of libusb.


Originally I had libusb 0.1.10a installed on my Gentoo system.
Version 0.1.12 was available, so I upgraded to it.  I then rebuilt
tilibs* and tilp-2 with the new libusb.  The same error occurs.  Later
today I may try to perform regression tests with different libusb
builds, but that will require time.

Its good though that you can reproduce the problem on your end ;)

Nothing since my last post has changed other than that; I am using the
same code as before:

tilibs2-20060623.tar.gz
tilp2-0.17.tar.gz

and hte same problems exist.  /proc/bus/usb/* is world writable for
testing.  It is interesting though to note that tilp-2 reports that I
don't have write permission:

ticables-INFO: Check for lib-usb usability:
ticables-INFO:     usb filesystem (/proc/bus/usb): mounted
ticables-INFO:     node /proc/bus/usb/devices: exists
ticables-INFO:     permissions/user/group: -rw-rw-rw- root usb
ticables-INFO:     is user can r/w on device: no
ticables-INFO:     are others can r/w on device: yes
ticables-INFO: found <TI89 Titanium>.

my user account is in the usb group, but that shouldn't make a
difference since the files are world writable:
