Hello,

I've been trying to get Jivelite to show visualizations while playing
music on CSOS-F19-R2.  I had been curious to see how the visualizations
look, and had never been able to get them to work, except on my
Fedora-20 laptop, where they worked just fine (except for the fact that
jivelite wanted root to run when started from a non-priviledged
account).

I just now tried an experiment on my Wandboard Quad, where I started
both squeezelite and jivelite as root, and was able to get the
visualizations to work. I also noticed that running ./squeezelite -v
produces an error message about not being able to open visualizer shared
memory

Code:
--------------------
    [fedora@wandquad squeezelite]$ ./squeezelite -v -o hw:CARD=UD501
  [22:31:13.619179] output_vis_init:134 unable to open visualizer shared memory
--------------------


Whereas if I use sudo in front of the same command, there is no such
complaint, and a file is created under /dev/shm.

I guess the real question is, how is this intended to work? Does the
default installation of CSOS take care of permissions in such a way that
the visualizer access to shared memory should work, or is there some
other recommended way to make it so?
