Finally found a laptop with udev installed.
Look in /etc/dev/permissions.rules
By default see stuff like this:
KERNEL=="tpm*", MODE="0600", OWNER="tss", GROUP="tss"
KERNEL=="fuse", GROUP="fuse"
If you want full read permissions change to:
KERNEL=="fuse", MODE="0666", GROUP="fuse"
Or change the group if you want to.
If your are running sarge like I am it by default does not have udev.
I made a script as /etc/init.d/local to fix this and some other settings
that runs late in the boot process. Sort of what rc.local does in redhat.
