If you know a user who has the privileges for audio and more, you can check in which group he is with `groups <the_budy>`. If you don't know such a user, view the file /etc/group (cut -d: -f1 /etc/group). And now for people lacking applications like g-s-t or kusers(?), the cli tool usermod is for them of course :-) usermod -aG audio,othergroup,... $USER In which wiki page would you put information about the group handling? > thanks in advance, > -- stratus Cheers, Mike, not Yves-Alexis :p -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
