# This is a sample udev file for HIDAPI devices which lets unprivileged # users who are physically present at the system (not remote users) access # HID devices. # If you are using the libusb implementation of hidapi (libusb/hid.c), then # use something like the following line, substituting the VID and PID with # those of your device. # HIDAPI/libusb SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="04d8", ATTRS{idProduct}=="003f", TAG+="uaccess" # If you are using the hidraw implementation (linux/hid.c), then do something # like the following, substituting the VID and PID with your device. # HIDAPI/hidraw KERNEL=="hidraw*", ATTRS{idVendor}=="04d8", ATTRS{idProduct}=="003f", TAG+="uaccess" # Once done, optionally rename this file for your application, and drop it into # /etc/udev/rules.d/. # NOTE: these rules must have priorty before 73-seat-late.rules. # (Small discussion/explanation in systemd repo: # https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/4288#issuecomment-348166161) # for example, name the file /etc/udev/rules.d/70-my-application-hid.rules. # Then, replug your device or run: # sudo udevadm control --reload-rules && sudo udevadm trigger # Note that the hexadecimal values for VID and PID are case sensitive and # must be lower case. # TAG+="uaccess" only gives permission to physically present users, which # is appropriate in most scenarios. If you require access to the device # from a remote session (e.g. over SSH), add # GROUP="plugdev", MODE="660" # to the end of the udev rule lines, add your user to the plugdev group with: # usermod -aG plugdev USERNAME # then log out and log back in (or restart the system).
