These groups are obsolete (or mostly), so I'm not sure what would be best here. Since they still exist, I think it makes sense to add admins to them, but we could also stop doing this in users-admin. How do Ubiquity devs fell about that? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/339164 Title: Missing default groups for user created on install -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This problem caused me quite a headache trying to sort out poor graphics performance issues I was experiencing. I wasted a lot of time trying different video drivers and configurations until I realized that glx gears was reporting that it could not access /dev/nvidiactl, which is in the video group. I added my user to the group and now my video performance is great. This is the only user I have on the system, and was created during install. -- Missing default groups for user created on install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/339164 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
