This is what I needed, I put it in /etc/udev/rules.d/80-dolphinbar.rules:
SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", ATTRS{idVendor}=="057e", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0306", MODE="0666"
I can’t remember where I found this, I’m pretty sure I didn’t figure this out for myself. If you need a DolphinBar, Aliexpress should have you covered. It could be that the vendor code differs for yours, so make sure to watch dmesg when you plug it in.
Thank you! The udev hint helped me a lot, even in 2020 🙂
Glad to hear! I’m still almost 100% sure I stole this from somewhere, perhaps the Dolphin forums, perhaps some Arch Linux wiki (but it works on openSUSE as well). Anyway, all credit goes to the original finders but I’m still happy it helped us both!
I am new to linux. Can you explain exactley HOW I add this rule?
It depends on the distribution, but for most you should be able to create a new file such as
10-mayflash.rules
in/etc/udev/rules.d
and then reload udev (so you don’t have to reboot):udevadm control --reload
. You will need to unplug and replug the Dolphinbar afterwards. Good luck!
