Installation on Ubuntu
There's only one step to installing on Ubuntu. When you plug a USB device into a machine running Ubuntu, by default regular users don't have access to it. Youcan change this behaviour on a device by device basis by adding entries to the file /lib/udev/rules.d/99-userusbdevices.rules
. For iBuddies and PC Gizmos, you need to add the following lines:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb",ATTR{idVendor}=="1130",ATTR{idProduct}=="0001",MODE="0660",GROUP="plugdev"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb",ATTR{idVendor}=="1130",ATTR{idProduct}=="0842",MODE="0660",GROUP="plugdev"
This grants read and write access to devices of these types for any user who is a member of the plugdev
group. If you've already got your iBuddy or PC Gizmo plugged in when you make this change, unplug it, and plug it in again to pick up the new permissions.
