getent group plugdev >/dev/null || sudo groupadd -r plugdev
  1. Copy 50-genoswitch.rules to /etc/udev/rules.d/
sudo cp 50-genoswitch.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/
  1. Add you user to the plugdev group.

| Replace with your username!

sudo usermod -a -G plugdev <username>
  1. Reload udev rules
sudo udevadm control --reload-rules
  1. Log out and log back in for the new rules and grouping to take effect.
