I am still on b15, but found out about the udev rules for ws23xx just
shortly after you added them (see
https://groups.google.com/g/weewx-user/c/kol0udZNuyc/m/1WhtZF0kBAAJ). My
ws28xx rules are different to the ones
in
https://github.com/weewx/weewx/blob/V5/src/weewx_data/util/udev/rules.d/ws28xx.rules
Here is mine:
$ cat /etc/udev/rules.d/99-ws28xx.rules
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="6666", ATTR{idProduct}=="5555",
MODE="666"
There are weewx':
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="6666", ATTRS{idProduct}=="5555",
MODE="0666"
Note the Differences: ATTR vs ATTRS "666" vs. "0666"
Since I can access the device as a non-root user this way, ATTR should be
sufficient, but I can't tell if there are downsides on also match for
parent devices when using ATTRS.
What I don't know: do I have to delete my udev rules for ws28xx, when
installing b17?
