Hi,

what is the correct way to permanently change the permissions on
certain devices. DVB TV viewer programs like xawtv need access to the
/dev/dvb/adapter*/* files. The /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules sets
MODE=0660. I tried changing this to MODE=0666 but after a reboot the
devices are still set to 0660.

Thanks in advance,
Bernd.
