pc1: Debian 12 Bookworm KDE X
pc2: Debian 12 Bookworm KDE Wayland
The output of the command evtest (owner root) is different on both pc's
pc1:pc2:On pc1 the devices are shown and I can execute the command without root
On pc2 the devices are not shown and I cannot execute the command without root

pc1:pc2:After this I added the group 'input' on pc2 and now the command evtest works also without on pc2.
My question:
When I look at the properties of the file evtest I see that the owner is 'root' and the group is 'root'. But members of the group 'input' also can execute the command without sudo. I discovered this by trial and error. How can I find which groups are able to execute the command (evtest) without sudo????
