hrm. Ok, i got:
22:45 $ls -dl /dev/input/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 2002-10-19 21:48 /dev/input/

that is ok .. pbbuttonsd is usually running as root.
>ok. # chmod 666 /dev/adb
22:45 $ls -dl /dev/adb
crw-rw---- 1 root root 56, 0 2002-03-14 10:11 /dev/adb

22:45 $ls -dl /dev/input/mice
crw-rw---- 1 root root 13, 63 2002-03-14 10:11 /dev/input/mice
If I start pbbuttonsd as palic, I will get the same as you:
22:48 $whoami
palic
22:49 $pbbuttonsd
ERROR: Can't open ADB device /dev/adb: Permission denied
So, you will not get it running under a user except root without
screwing up your right on several devices.
Regards
Jan
