You cannot recommend that. chmod a+rw /dev/uhid* chmod: /dev/uhid0: Operation not permitted chmod: /dev/uhid1: Operation not permitted chmod: /dev/uhid2: Operation not permitted chmod: /dev/uhid3: Operation not permitted chmod: /dev/uhid4: Operation not permitted chmod: /dev/uhid5: Operation not permitted chmod: /dev/uhid6: Operation not permitted chmod: /dev/uhid7: Operation not permitted So he'll use doas.
