- create a new group using groupadd
- adding this group to /etc/sudoers
- setting permissions to the PHCTool files
If you don't wish to use the installer or if the installer doesn't work for you (in that case please contact me) you can start PHCTool by calling phctool.sh as root.
PHCTool needs to be started as root because the SysFS Interface of acpi and linux-phc are writable by root only.
To install PHCTool using the installer;
- Copy all files to the location you want to store it
- Run install.sh as root within a command line
- Follow the installers instructions
- add each user who can use PHCTool to the new group (installer default: 'phctool')
- logout and re-login to have the group changes take effect.
