I've the same problem like described here:
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/libhid-discuss/2007-March/000104.html
I don't want to run my app as root to access the device.

I tried the solution like already discussed in

http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/libhid-discuss/2007-March/000110.html

However, I'm new to udev and all that stuff, even though I slightly
understand what it does, I couldn't get my device to work. I added a
file

49-hid-development.rules

with following content:

# udev rules file for development of usb hid device driver experiments
# to be replaced by a script!
# use @RUN_AS_GROUP@ tag for setting the rw permissions for the correct
user id


# play around with the Microsoft Wireless mouse
SYSFS{idVendor}=="045e", SYSFS{idProduct}=="00e1", MODE="664",
GROUP="1000"

# for the BiSP gateway 
SYSFS{idVendor}=="03eb", SYSFS{idProduct}=="2034", MODE="664",
GROUP="1000"

I (UID 1000) want to have read and write access for two devices to play
around with them. 

As I've read in the udev readme, a reboot should not be nevessary after
saving that file in the udev/rules.d directory. What am I doing wrong?
