When looking at the upstream README, I see this in 'examples': $ gpiodetect Which indicates it can/should be run as a normal user. But when I try it on my PC, I get the following error: diederik@pc:~$ gpiodetect gpiodetect: unable to access GPIO chips: Permission denied It works when I do it as root though. It would be great if (f.e.) there was a `gpio` group setup by this package which grants access to the gpio devices, so that normal users can interact with the GPIO chips/subsystem. - -- System Information: Debian Release: trixie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (101, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.5.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/16 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHUEARYIAB0WIQT1sUPBYsyGmi4usy/XblvOeH7bbgUCZUO29gAKCRDXblvOeH7b blSCAP9M2Mt1TfQaGyhbLfr5eF1OI6/at7z6FCIdYTiX1tSkwAEAgxF6N1pmX1yB vRKGDgxFcO0Q3XVWA79lE2f6FIp3agg= =E/J4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
