## Setup ## New host setup (one-time)
### 1. Install udev rules (once, on the host) Clone the repo and install the udev rules so the crash cart adapter is accessible without root:
```bash ```bash
git clone git@git.sdgarren.com:scott/usb-crash-cart.git
cd usb-crash-cart
sudo ./install-udev-rules.sh sudo ./install-udev-rules.sh
``` ```
This allows the crash cart adapter (USB vendor `152a`, products `8460`/`8463`) to be Reconnect the adapter if it was already plugged in.
accessed without root.
### 2. Place the .deb package ## Running
Copy the vendor `.deb` to `packages/crash-cart.deb`: Pull the pre-built image from the Gitea registry and launch:
```bash
cp /path/to/"Linux-X64 Crash Cart Software_1240415.deb" packages/crash-cart.deb
```
### 3. Build the image
```bash
docker build -t usb-crash-cart .
```
### 4. Run
```bash ```bash
docker pull git.sdgarren.com/scott/usb-crash-cart:latest
./docker-run.sh ./docker-run.sh

This handles X11 socket sharing and USB device passthrough automatically. `docker-run.sh` handles X11/XWayland socket sharing and USB device passthrough automatically.
