http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1140623 Bug ID: 1140623 Summary: Wrong or missing udev rule for /dev/usbtmc* device files Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 15.1 Hardware: x86-64 OS: SUSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel Assignee: kernel-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: teuniz@gmail.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Problem: device files /dev/usbtmc* have uid and gid both set to root. User needs to be root in order to run an application that wants to communicate with the device. What was expected: device files /dev/usbtmc* have uid set to root and gid set to "usbtmc" (like it was with Leap 42.2). That way the user only needed to be added to the group "usbtmc" in order to use the device. Rationale: compare it with a serial port to USB converter. When attached, the device file /dev/ttyUSB* will be created and uid will be set to root and gid will be set to "dialout". This way, the user only need to be a member of the group "dialout" in order to use the serial port. I temporary resolved the problem by adding my own udev rule as described here: https://www.teuniz.net/DSRemote/ -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
