# This file goes in /etc/udev/rules.d/
# The rules syntax has changed for both Ubuntu, openSUSE and perhaps all other distributions. The old syntax has been deprecated.
# MODE="0660" can be tried and should work as suggested by Andrea Montefusco. You also need to add a softrock group using "groupadd softrock".
# You then need to edit /etc/group and add your user to it, e.g: on the line 
# softrock:x:1000:lancelot
# That adds user lancelot to the softrock group. Replace "lancelot" with your user.
# You need to logout and login again to make it active.
# There is now a /dev/softrock created as a link to /dev/bus/usb/00x/00x

# SYSFS is deprecated for current udev versions, OK for older distros, perhaps 
# Ubuntu 9.04 and earlier.
# On boot up and in /var/log/messages there will be output saying that 
# SYSFS is deprecated and should be changed to ATTR or ATTRS if you have a 
# recent distro.
#
# Uncomment the next line for older distributions.
# SYSFS{idVendor}=="16c0", SYSFS{idProduct}=="05dc", MODE="660", GROUP="admin"

#Fedora 12+ and may be 11, openSUSE 11+, Ubuntu 9.10+ needs below
-----------------------------------------------------------------
# Use this line for newer systems, comment it out for older systems described above.
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ACTION=="add", ATTR{idVendor}=="16c0", ATTR{idProduct}=="05dc", MODE="0666", GROUP="softrock", SYMLINK="softrock"

# One suggestion received is to rename this file to 99-softrock.files, either way it works the same.
