Describe the request

The current installation instructions only mention to add the user to the dialout group to be able to access serial ports. On some (newer) distros this won't work anymore.

Instead you need to modify the udev rules. In my case I had to add: SUBSYSTEMS=="usb-serial", TAG+="uaccess" to /etc/udev/rules.d/01-ttyusb.rules.

It would be great if this information would be added to the install instructions or maybe even add this rule by install.sh itself.

Describe the current behavior

If the current installation instructions are followed, serial ports can't be accessed on some distros because of a permission error.
