I am trying to run sigrok with real HW. However, running pulseview, there is no real HW possible. I suspected that this was due to sigrok not having the privilege to access the HW, and so I ran it as root, and I was able to access the HW.



My question is:
How do I run this without root? I assume I need to change the gid or uid of the device file to be able to access it. If so:



  • How do I find out the device file for the HW?

  • How to do this cleanly? .i.e. automate this when the HW is disconnected and reconnected.

  • Which gid? is there a convention?

In case it is relevant



  • Hantek 6022BL. Currently, operating in Logic Analyzer mode and is using the driver "Saleae Logic".

  • LTS 18.04

  • Find the device name with sudo lshw or sudo lsof, or journalctl --follow as you turn the device on. Then ls -l /dev/_device_. If the device premits "group" access, use adduser to add yourself to that group, and either logout/login or newgrp. Read man adduser;man newgrp
