This is with sys-fs/udev-107-r1
Did this change related to older versions, or tell me why this is a bug. I love it when normal user X is not able to read what I type when I want to login as root.
Hmm.. I think you have a valid point. Closing as INVALID.
One possible solution could be creating a group that can access input-devices. Or you create special rules for some of them, for example like debian has to access the infra-red device on a dvb-card for group video: KERNEL=="event[0-9]*", ATTRS{name}=="*dvb*|*DVB*|* IR *" \ MODE="0664", GROUP="video"
