 |
|
Well it seems lots of people are having trouble with permissions and udev 056. I've upgraded to this new version, but now when the usb nodes are created for my palm, they are set so only root and not the tty group has r+w rights. I accpeted the rules changes with etc-update when upgrading. I know that permissions.d settings are not read anymore, so is there any way to get the old permissions file read in rules.d by the new system?

Move your old permissions file to rules.d and then edit it. You will have to change the syntax to match the 50-udev.rules. For example, I used to have a permissions file that looked like this: | Code: | | rfcomm[0-9]*:root:tty:0660 |
.
This gave the tty group read and write permission on /dev/bluetooth/rfcomm devices, which is similar to what you are trying to achieve. To get this working with udev-056 the rule looks like this: | Code: | | KERNEL="rfcomm[0-9]*", NAME="bluetooth/%k", GROUP="tty", MODE="0660" |
. |

Cheers, that's sorted it. It seems that the default gentoo config for 056 has tighter permissions for some devices than previous versions.
