See the instructions I wrote here on pdpedia:

Works for me on Ubuntu Hardy 8.04 and Lucid 10.04. I think "sudo chmod
-R 777 /dev/input/" will be reset after reboot / logout.

Does this work on recent distributions? I've tried different things
involving /dev/input/, to no avail in Fedora 12. It did work in Ubuntu
Studio 9.04.

To use [joystick ] which uses [hid ] without having to run Pd as
root I make a "sudo chmod -R 777 /dev/input/" after pluging the
devices...
I'm not sure to answer the question but maybe it'll help someone
else... :-)

Does anybody know how to have access to HIDs in Pd without
having to run as root? I've read that this was considered a
security breach and that newer versions of Ubuntu, Fedora,
etc. had this "fixed".
Anyway, that's nice to have this howto on the wiki. You don't
seem to have mentioned the rt-kernel anywhere, though. That'd
be nice to have another paragraph about it, as i think one
doesn't get the same performances with realtime permissions in
a rt vs. non-rt kernel.

Howdy,
I added a howto page on the wiki adding realtime
permissions for Ubuntu:
http://puredata.info/docs/tutorials/HowToRunPDWithRealtimePriorityInUbuntu
Please check it for me and make any changes.
