Hi Simone!

For permanent and by-user permission you can use udev-rules. Didn't try it yet but bookmarked it once:

I'm using 444-permissions instead of 777 to prevent crashes I had before.

sweet, it worked but i dont understand that "444" instead of "777" stuff, in the how to they dont use 777 but 660 and 664 thanks Simone

hi i can access the HID object only as root, or, to be more precise, i can access only as root the device i am trying to get into the HID object. Of course i can chmod 777 /dev/input/eventxx then access the device as user but isn t there an easier workaround ? Simone
