PyVISA not listing USB instrument on Linux

I am trying to communicate with a LeCroy WaveRunner 640Zi oscilloscope from a Raspberry Pi, they are connected with a USB cable. I have already done this under Windows, but now I am not able to make it work in Linux.

If I run lsusb I see this:

$ lsusb
Bus 001 Device 009: ID 05ff:1023 LeCroy Corp.
...

If I now go to Python I get this:

$ python3
Python 3.7.3 (default, Dec 20 2019, 18:57:59) 
[GCC 8.3.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import pyvisa
>>> pyvisa.ResourceManager().list_resources()
('ASRL/dev/ttyAMA0::INSTR',)
>>> 

The oscilloscope is not there (the ASRL/dev/ttyAMA0::INSTR I think is something from the Raspberry Py itself). The oscilloscope is properly configured, I think, because if I go to the options (using the screen from the scope itself) and go to "remote options" I see that it is set up for USB and the VISA address is USB0::bla::bla::bla::INSTR .

I tried to proceed as explained in this page but did not work. If I run python3 -m visa info I get

$ python3 -m visa info
~/.local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/visa.py:23: FutureWarning: The visa module provided by PyVISA is being deprecated. You can replace `import visa` by `import pyvisa as visa` to achieve the same effect.

The reason for the deprecation is the possible conflict with the visa package provided by the https://github.com/visa-sdk/visa-python which can result in hard to debug situations.

I have also tried to connect with the oscilloscope without "listing the resources" by doing pyvisa.ResourceManager().open_resource('USB0::bla::bla::bla::INSTR') but I get:

>>> osc = pyvisa.ResourceManager().open_resource('USB0::0x05ff::0x1023::2810N60091::INSTR')
Traceback (most recent call last):

I managed to find a solution which I share for the sake of future generations to come. I had just to add a line to the file /etc/udev/rules.d/99-com.rules with the content SUBSYSTEM=="usb", MODE="0666", GROUP="usbusers" (or append this line in case the file already exists). This can be done first running

sudo su

and then

echo 'SUBSYSTEM=="usb", MODE="0666", GROUP="usbusers"' >> /etc/udev/rules.d/99-com.rules

After this I restarted the Raspberry Pi and now:

$ python3
Python 3.7.3 (default, Dec 20 2019, 18:57:59) 
[GCC 8.3.0] on linux

>>> import pyvisa
>>> pyvisa.ResourceManager().list_resources()
('ASRL/dev/ttyAMA0::INSTR', 'USB0::bla::bla::bla::INSTR')
>>>  osc = pyvisa.ResourceManager().open_resource('USB0::bla::bla::bla::INSTR')
>>> osc.query('*IDN?')
'*IDN LECROY,WR640ZI,LCRY28blablabla,7.7.1\n'
