1 I'd like to make the file /sys/class/backlight/asus-laptop/brightness
2 writeable for users, so that I don't need to be root anymore to change
3 the brightness.
4
5 Of course I can chown or chmod ot in local.start but I'm asking if there
6 is a cleaner way.
7
8 Also, are there any security risks on changing permissions on /sys
9 files?
