It is general for Linux. It is the permissions on the handle in
/proc/bus/usb. If you can read/write them, digikam can work. After the
device is made, you need to chmod it. I am sure there is some default
creation mask somewhere for this, but I have not gone looking. Remember
that this is the whole of /proc is not a disk file system. It is a virtual
one maintained by various drivers in the kernel. In this case, it is a
'usbdevfs' file system.
