rule for old udev version

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello to everyone,
I apologize in advance if I'm doing something wrong writing to this
mailing list asking for support but I have some issues I wasn't been
able to solve in other forum/mailing list.

I'm using a Scientific Linux CERN 4 distro which uses udev version
039-10.22. It is quite old but i cannot update it for various reasons.

I have a usb device to be configured by udev and a rule provided by
the manufacturer to recognize the device and set permissions to
everyone.

The rules is the following:
# udev rules file for all Opal Kelly VID matches.
# This file allows udev to change the mode to 666 (all read/write)
# for any Opal Kelly VID.
#

# For FedoraCore 5 and similar:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device", SYSFS{idVendor}=="151f", MODE="0666"

# For FedoraCore 7 and similar:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="151f", MODE="0666"

As stated in the comments the rule is designed for FedoraCore5 which
uses a more recent version of udev.
My problem is that using this rule in my configuration only root is
allowed to use the device(while it works with FC5).

I tried to change this rule a bit trying to adapt it to an older
version of udev but I didn't get any success.

Can anyone help me?

Thank you in advance,
Nicola
