Everything works fine if I program the device as root, but I'd like to be able to do it as a regular user. I get port permission errors if I try to run the programmer as a regular user. $ lsusb Bus 002 Device 003: ID 064e:a101 Suyin Corp.

The documentation for the device says it needs access to /proc/bus/usb. I can allow regular user access by manually issuing a chown command for the port, but then I'd have to do it every time I reboot or unplug the programmer. How do I set it up to happen automatically in F10 ? Thanks</blockquote><div> You could probably just put "chmod -R 777 /dev/ttyUSB*" into /etc/rc.local, but this is not a development question, please post this somewhere else like <a href="http://fedoraforum.org">fedoraforum.org</a>.
