It used to be possible to add a chmod command to /etc/rc.d/rc.local BUT: - I'm not sure that works for any distro that uses systemd service management instead of System V Init. I think that may be all kernel 3.x systems but don't quote me since I only use Fedora. Fedora introduced systemd with Fedora 15. - Since /etc/rc.d/rc.local was only executed at boot time it never did work for USB adapters and any other hotplugged devices, but the UDEV rules are applied whenever a device file for a hotplugged device is created as well as at boot time.
