Hints and tips

The installation adds new plugdev group and installs No results rules for some hardware (e.g. FTDI USB/Serial adapters), which uses this group for device files (e.g. /dev/ttyUSBx). To use these devices as regular user, the user must be member of plugdev group.

   Warning

The group of device files can be, after installation of dev-embedded/openocd, changed. Without this package most of them has uucp as group and after install it, they can seems as stop to works.
