[Dri-users] DRI and DevFS permission problems

[Shanker B. <sh...@ex...>]

Hello:

I am running Linux kernel 2.4.3-pre6 with devfs enabled. 

My problem is that /dev/dri and /dev/dri/card0 is created as root.root
with perms 660.

[root@godzilla /root]# ls -l /dev/dri/
total 0
crw-rw----    1 root     root     226,   0 Mar 22 09:52 card0

[root@godzilla /root]# ls -l /dev/dri/card0
crw-rw----    1 root     root     226,   0 Mar 22 09:52 /dev/dri/card0

By default only root can access the DRI device. If i want to use DRI as
a normal user, i chown/chmod it so that a normal user can have access to
the device.

Is there way i can set the permissions for /dev/dri/* via devfsd.conf
itself so that the device is created as root.dri 0660?
