Do you want to limit access to the user logged into the console, or
do you want it accessible to all users? To limit it the console
user, take a look at console.perms. You will need to create a rule
for it in /etc/security/console.perms.d. To change the permissions
when it is created, you will have to add a udev rule to set permissions.
