[arch-general] Input, Uinput, and udev problems with user access

[Storm Dragon]

Howdy,

Up until yesterday evening, the following setup would allow the Fenrir screen reader to access the tools it needs to read without root access in terminal emulators like Xterm:

        groupadd --system input
        groupadd --system uinput
        echo 'KERNEL==\"event*\", NAME=\"input/%k\", MODE=\"660\", GROUP=\"input\"' >> /etc/udev/rules.d/99-input.rules
        echo 'KERNEL==\"uinput\", SUBSYSTEM==\"misc\", OPTIONS+=\"static_node=uinput\", TAG+=\"uaccess\", GROUP=\"uinput\"' >> /etc/udev/rules.d/99-fenrirscreenreader.rules

Now, however, while it can still read the screen, the keyboard does nothing. Has something changed, and if so, what do I need to do differently to get it working again?

Thanks,
Storm
