When mining on linux, but not using 'sudo' and not logged into 'root' you
may get a USB priviledge error (-3), so you may also need to do the following:
Create /etc/udev/rules.d/01-cgminer.rules
With:
ATTRS{idVendor}=="0403", ATTRS{idProduct}=="6014", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ACTION=="add", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"
ATTRS{idVendor}=="1fc9", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0003", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ACTION=="add", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"
And also:
sudo usermod -G plugdev -a `whoami`
Then reboot ...
If your linux distro doesn't have the 'plugdev' group, you can create it like:
sudo groupadd plugdev
