Linux multitouch without running as root

[snibbe]

Allow running on Linux without being root (or provide instructions how), possibly like this:

Find out the device information:
Run lsusb or lspci commands to identify the vendor and product IDs of your input device. For example, if it's a USB device, lsusb will provide the necessary information.

Create a udev rule:
Create a new udev rule, for example, in /etc/udev/rules.d/99-my-input.rules, with the following content (replace 1234 and 5678 with your device's vendor and
product IDs):

SUBSYSTEM=="input", ATTRS{idVendor}=="1234", ATTRS{idProduct}=="5678", MODE="0666"
This rule grants read/write permissions (0666) to the specified input device.

Reload udev rules:
After creating or modifying udev rules, reload the udev rules for the changes to take effect:

sudo udevadm control --reload-rules
