Fixing /dev/ttyUSB0 permissions for GPSBabel in fedora 15 (revisited)

Having fixed Garmin-babel communication some time ago I have encountered similar problem with another GPSdevice, namely MTK's BT747 logger. This time fixing the problem was simple.

I added the following to the /etc/udev/rules.d/51-garmin.rules:


SYSFS{idVendor}=="10c4", SYSFS{idProduct}=="ea60", MODE="0666"

Vendor ID and product ID can be figured out inspecting dmesg log:


# connect the device first
dmesg | less

So my /etc/udev/rules.d/51-garmin.rules file looks like in the following listing:


SYSFS{idVendor}=="091e", SYSFS{idProduct}=="0003", MODE="0666"
SYSFS{idVendor}=="10c4", SYSFS{idProduct}=="ea60", MODE="0666"

One has to remember to stop/remove gps demon (gpsd).
