Hi,
I finally got my sound enabled in the kernel. On to the next
problem. Whenever I try to use something like workbone, or anything that
needs to use a device such as /dev/audio, or /dev/dsp, or even /dev/hdb (my
cdrom) as an ordinary user I get permission denied. The permissions on
these are ?rw-rw----.
For the time being I have just done a chmod to give rw permission to
the world. From a security point of view, is this an acceptable solution ?
Would there be a better way to allow myself to use these devices without
being root ? I thought of making myself a member of the groups audio and
disk (for hdb), but this seemed like a messy solution, and I wasn't sure of
the wisdom of being a member of the group disk.
Anyone know what the right way to do this is ?
TIA,
Gerald Crimp
