Udev rule set for uinput
About
The udev rule set below will allow access to the uinput module (used by CWiid) for normal (non-root) users on a linux system.
Installation
- Save this script as 70-wminput.rules
- Copy this file to /etc/udev/rules.d/ sudo cp 70-wminput.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/
- Remove the uinput module if it has been installed previously sudo rmmod uinput
- Add the uninput module to the system sudo modprobe uinput
You may need to add uinput to your /etc/modules file if the uinput module does not reload after reboot.
Script
# This file maintains module settings. # See udev(7) for syntax. # # The easy way KERNEL=="uinput", MODE="0666" # The better way # KERNEL=="uinput", GROUP="<group>"
