You need the correct permissions as well, not just the correct owner.
Does "chown -R go-w" even work?
Anyway, download a known working input manager such as SIMBL, and
compare the permissions with yours until you find the discrepancy.
Or for that matter, just write a SIMBL plugin instead. It's easier and
somewhat nicer if you only want to hit certain apps instead of all of
them.
