Create a file called /etc/udev/rules.d/99-udev-override.rules that contains KERNEL=="tty[A-Z]*", GROUP="some_other_group_than_uucp", MODE="0660", OPTIONS="last_rule" with mode of 0644 reboot and confirm that the group permissions change or not. If you change the mode however you will see that the mode *does* change. -- James A.
