Would you like to contribute something easy to a little project?

My game-devices-udev is missing out some udev-rules already in steam-devices. This would be a good chance to kill some time and do some MR :D (and even learn git, markdown, udev in the process!)

Any ideas how to get a #Wine app to pick up a USB peripheral? I created a #Udev rule but beyond that I'm stumped. For the record, I've read all about how USB isn't a core Wine function and that if Wine does control the device the host won't be able to. I'm good with all of that, I think it's fine for my use case.

My use case being: I have a #Roland #TR-6s and I want to try to use the TR Editor via Wine. I was able to get it installed and running finally and now this new roadblock has appeared.

If this doesn't pan out I'll look into setting up a stripped down VM.

#HIVEMIND: What would be the best way to give a #Linux user with no admin rights (i.e. no access to sudo) have full access to external block devices?

These users need to be able to repartition and put images on USB sticks, but not internal drives.

I'm thinking #udev should be able to do the job, but I don't know if there's a way to specify "all USB block devices." I guess an alternative would be to say "anything but NVMe drives" or "only /dev/sdx drives," but that feels too imprecise.

If there's a better way then I'm all ears.

First time renaming something at the #udev level (NAME=) instead of adding an alternative name (SYMLINK+=).

That was fun… regardless of the relative order of the TAG+=, ENV{}=, and NAME= directives, I couldn't do more than renaming…

Turns out this isn't an all-or-nothing thing, you might get the new name, without the rest (environment variables)… until you figure out your KERNEL== filter needs to accept the new name as well. Otherwise, you're out of luck.

That was fun…

Flipper Zero unter Arch Linux – wichtiger Hinweis

Falls der Flipper Zero unter Arch nicht erkannt wird und ihr „/dev/ttyACM0: Permission denied“ bekommt:

Die Udev-Regeln der Flipper-App erwarten die Gruppe „dialout“. Arch nutzt dafür aber die Gruppe „uucp“.

Fix:
1. Udev-Regel anpassen: dialout → uucp
2. User hinzufügen: sudo usermod -aG uucp $USER
3. reboot

Danach läuft der Flipper Zero unter Arch auch ohne sudo.
