hi friends,

i want to sync my palm over usb.
in the moment this works only as root.
i do not find any ttyUSB* in my dev-directory that are mostly the used devices for that communication.
starting my palm shows f.e. following messages
[ 1273.993297] usb 3-1: new full-speed USB device number 6 using uhci_hcd
i guess there should be a rule in /etc/udev/rules.d/ that offers the device with the right permissions and ownership f.e. tc/staff or root/staff.

thank you for your help.

hi roberts,

now i found the missing rule:

/etc/udev/rules.d/90-permissions.rules
SUBSYSTEM=="usb",GROUP="staff"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb",MODE="0664"

would you be so kind and include this or a comparable rule in dCore?

thank you for your help.
