# Sets up newly plugged in USB camera so that just one certain user
USER=root
# can access it from user space. (Replace root by the user 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-usb-usermap".
# b) run your camera software as the user given above
# 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.
