When you create new VSPs using the VSPM, they are often created as nodes owned by “root” and belonging to the “root” group, like so:
crw-rw---- 1 root root 101, 0 2010-08-02 12:15 vsps0
This isn't due to the VSPM itself; it's because of udev, used for managing device nodes in distros using Linux kernel 2.6. The simplest way to allow non-root access to the device is to simply chmod it accordingly:
chmod o+rw /dev/vsps0
(When the device is vsps0, of course.)
Note that you don't need to change permissions on /dev/vspdN – only /dev/vspsN. The /dev/vspdN node is used for internal purposes only.
