[Solved]Chmod problem

[Kinfule]

I was trying to configure Kink and told me it didn't detect my usb printer an to chmod something.

I tried chmoding /dev/bus/usb/002 but kink didn't work, anyway I couldn't access the folder now so I tried to put the permissions as the were (rwx-xr-x)
but when I try to do this, I'm unable to give read permission to the folder.
Look:

xxxxx@xxxx:/dev/bus/usb$ ls -l
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 60 2007-10-22 13:27 001
drwxr-x--x 2 root root 80 2007-10-22 13:27 002
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 80 2007-10-22 13:27 003
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 60 2007-10-22 13:27 004
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 60 2007-10-22 13:27 005
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 2007-10-22 16:27 devices -> .usbfs/devices
xxxxx@xxxx:/dev/bus/usb$ sudo chmod g+r ./002/
xxxxx@xxxx:/dev/bus/usb$ ls -l
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 60 2007-10-22 13:27 001

drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 60 2007-10-22 13:27 005
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 2007-10-22 16:27 devices -> .usbfs/devices
xxxx@xxx:/dev/bus/usb$ sudo chmod 751 ./002/
xxxxx@xxxx:/dev/bus/usb$ ls -l
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 60 2007-10-22 13:27 001
drwxr-x--x 2 root root 80 2007-10-22 13:27 002
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 80 2007-10-22 13:27 003
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 60 2007-10-22 13:27 004
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 60 2007-10-22 13:27 005
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 2007-10-22 16:27 devices -> .usbfs/devices

It should be as the rest of the folders but I can get the reading permission to work.

Re: Chmod problem

Seems to be working to me, the permissions you set (g+r and 751) are there:
d rwx(user) r-x(group) --x(others) 2 root root 80 2007-10-22 13:27 002

If you wish it to be same as the other folders use o+r or 755 (giving read permission for others)
