no don't run chmod 666. run 'adduser yourusername audio' making the audio devices world readable/writable allows all users to listen to your attached microphone (if any) thus being able to eavesdrop on anyone in the room. only trusted users should have access to the audio devices. -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
