Hello All,

I recently upgraded LBreakout2 to version 2.2.4 or something, and now I can't

directory as a normal user for some reason.  Any ideas as to what to do to 
fix this would be much appreciated.  I noticed something about a games group 
scroll by drin he install, but have no idea what to do regarding that.
As root, edit the file /etc/group and find the line that starts 'games'.
If there is just a : at the end of the line, add your username, 
otherwise put a comma then your username.

That will add you to the games group, which sounds like it's what's 
disallowing you access to much needed gaming :)

I may completely wrong here but I thought I saw a post emerge message
recently about there no longer being a need for a 'games' group.  Or is
that the case only for certain specific games?
