Comment 7 for bug 1332444

Sorry, the setfacl call is a gaping security hole, not your custom rule. But /lib/udev/rules.d/50-udev-default.rules already gives world-read permissions on joysticks, so neither is required in the first place.

To find out more, it would also be good if you could install the "evtest" program, run "evtest" (as user), select your Rudder Pedals, and see if you get any events. Or copy&paste the complete output of the program if it doesn't work. Thanks!
