Hi Yves-Alexis, How are you doing? Just for the record, with GNOME you can go to System->Administration->User and Groups and add user in those groups in a easy way. It doesn't exhibit a list of groups or let users figure out the group by themselves, but they show roles instead (eg: audio is "Use audio devices"). Under the hood there's users-admin part of gnome-system-tools. It seems that g-s-t is too much for Xfce so is there something that does the same? If yes, could you write here a step by step like I did above, please? We lack this kind of documentation (wiki.d.o is open to receive such stuff) about Debian Desktop usage. Same deal for KDE, anyone ? thanks in advance, -- stratus http://stratusandtheswirl.blogspot.com get debian @ http://get.debian.net/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
