Is what I get.

They should be getting set to allow a particular user/group access I believe. Can you check "# getfacl /dev/dvb"? For example when I look at /dev/cdrom on my system, it's root:root, but I get permissions specifically as my user: $ getfacl /dev/cdrom getfacl: Removing leading '/' from absolute path names# file: dev/cdrom# owner: root# group: cdromuser::rw- user:supermario:rw-group::rw-mask::rw-other::--- On Sun, May 13, 2012 at 2:55 PM, RefuX Zanzeebarr <[email protected]> wrote: I have been using 11.10 very happily, but decided to upgrade to 12.04 (well Saturday was a quiet day!). Everything went smoothly except that my HD5500 cards were all apparently 'busy'. So I begrudgingly starting learning about permissions and things. Apparently the issue boils down to the /dev/dvb folding being part of the root group, which I assume wasn't the case in 11.10? As an experiment I tried a chmod -R 777 /dev/dvb Which worked! However whenever I reboot, the permissions get reset :( I started down the path of learning about a thing called 'udev'. However before I get too deep down the rabbit hole, I'm wondering if this is a bug or is there more simple fix? I'd rather not learn about udev if I can avoid it :) I've never ever had a problem with mythbuntu and dvb permissions until 12.04. Why now? What's the fix?
