Im trying to use the usb c port to send serial data to an esp32 with a python program. I get the following error. serial.serialutil.SerialException: [Errno 13] could not open port /dev/ttyGS0: [Errno 13] Permission denied: ‘/dev/ttyGS0’
I googled this and added my user account to dialout . This had no effect. The code will work if I run the program under sudo but this wont be practical because it still requires me to enter the password. this will be a headless system once its installed.
UPDATE: I switched to using the UART on the GPIO pins. I was able to add a rule that let be used that port without prompt for permissions.
