[Q] adb devices returns '??????????????? no permissions'

This is just with Linux Mint- works in OS X.
adb in Mint works with Nexus 4 and One X every time but the OPO won't show up at all whether stock OS or Mahdi.
Any way to fix?

Just "sudo adb devices"

Happens to me on my ubuntu build VM too

Didn't work. The OTO does not show up in Mint as a connected device for some reason while the Nexus 4 and One X do and they respond to adb devices.
The OTO says connected as media device, android debugging enabled. Again it does connect and respond in OS X.

If you're developing on Ubuntu Linux, you need to add a udev rules file that contains a USB configuration for each type of device you want to use for development. In the rules file, each device manufacturer is identified by a unique vendor ID, as specified by the ATTR{idVendor} property. For a list of vendor IDs, see USB Vendor IDs, below. To set up device detection on Ubuntu Linux:

Log in as root and create this file: /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules.

Use this format to add each vendor to the file:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="0bb4", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"

In this example, the vendor ID is for HTC. The MODE assignment specifies read/write permissions, and GROUP defines which Unix group owns the device node.

Note: The rule syntax may vary slightly depending on your environment. Consult the udev documentation for your system as needed. For an overview of rule syntax, see this guide to writing udev rules.
Now execute:
chmod a+r /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules

Did yo follow these steps already ?

Above my pay grade ... I'll just plug it in the Mac
Thanks though.

Just plugged it into a W7 Pro machine and it saw it as a portable device and let me browse the folders without any tweaking.
