Thanks guys for your tips. I don't think this will help me because as
I described before, my problem seems to be KDE specific. The device is
correctly detected in Gnome and even in Gimp (running on KDE!). So I'm
think that it is rather a bug in the KDE Device Notifier or either a
misconfiguration in my system.

Thanks anyway! Mario
