I would do a `ls -l` on the specific serial device your FT-65 enumerates 
as.  It might not be `dialout`, but some other group name, `uucp` maybe?

As a temporary work-around, you could try running `sudo chmod 0666 
${device}` before running `chirpw` or `chirpc` and see if that allows 
you to run the tool as a plain user.

If that command "fixes it", then the permanent fix is to configure 
`udev` to recognise it, and assign correct ownership/permissions.
