I'm sorry but it has in fact a wider scope and I don't feel like removing those rules from openocd udev file. Currently, openocd is changing group for all the following generic FTDI devices: """ 0403 Future Technology Devices International, Ltd 6001 FT232 USB-Serial (UART) IC 6010 FT2232C Dual USB-UART/FIFO IC 6011 FT4232H Quad HS USB-UART/FIFO IC 6014 FT232H Single HS USB-UART/FIFO IC """ While I agree that it is unfortunate that some JTAG adapters abuse the generic PID, I think that it is safe to say that these devices are generic enough to be owned by the "plugdev" group vs. the really specific "dialout". Other rules-files seem to agree with me, and for example /lib/udev/rules.d/77-mm-usb-serial-adapters-greylist.rules says: """ # FTDI-based serial adapters # FTDI does USB to serial converter ICs; and it's very likely that they'll # never do modems themselves, so it should be safe to add a rule only based # on the vendor Id. ATTRS{idVendor}=="0403", ENV{ID_MM_DEVICE_MANUAL_SCAN_ONLY}="1" """ Thus, I'm inclined to mark this bug as wontfix and keep the status-quo.
