i have discovered (through trial and error) that i had to set the
permissions for /dev/sgc in order to get grip to work as well as the
permisions for /dev/scd0 and /dev/scd1 (scsi cdrom drives), however
after a reboot i found that /dev/sgb needing permissions setting and not
/dev/sgc, what is going on here i don't know perhaps the 'generic scsi
device' is a semi-random device determined at boot-up?,whatever, someone
may find this info useful
