[PD] Ubuntu 8.1 HID object

[alvaro]

Hi,

quick fix: 

sudo chown root:audio /dev/input/*

this changes the group ownership of everything under /dev/input to group
audio, of which you are presumably a member. This makes your system
slightly more vulnerable, but it will be reverted the next time you
boot.
