>> Hi everybody,

> It looks like you are using a BSD-like system, based on the /dev/ugen0
name. Which OS is it?
> I thought we had added better error reporting for permissions errors, but
that is the most likely cause of this problem. (Knowing the OS will help us
figure out the right solution.) You also don't need the "-x explore" switch
since the MGE (now Eaton) models should be completely supported.

Hi Charles, merci pour ta réponse,

You are right, I'm using FreeBSD 6.1 (x86) (I didn't have the time to
upgrade yet).
I'm using libusb-0.1.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Edouard
