Really? Gee, I just modified:
KERNEL=="ttyUSB*", GROUP="uucp", MODE="0660"
to
KERNEL=="ttyUSB*", GROUP="uucp", MODE="0666"
in "/etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules". Yes, it removes a tiny bit of
security, but it works for a lot of stuff without having to whonk
/etc/group or anything. Besides, I'm a lazy cuss! :-D
