Update: I just tested this on Hardy Gnome:
When starting hp-toolbox from a console this message is displayed: HP Linux Imaging and Printing System (ver. 2.8.2) HP Device Manager ver. 11.0 Copyright (c) 2001-7 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, LP This software comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.

Please fix this bug, since it looks to me like this way no one can use hp-toolbox the way it is supposed to, being a regular user. -- Kubuntu Hardy: HP-Toolbox only works when used as root https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/209781 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
