Hello
I installed the driver using the installer from nvidia.com and the permissions are crw-rw-rw-, only owner.group is root.root, so I think it should be okay. By the way, did you log out and in again after adding yourself to the video group? Otherwise the system won't know that you added yourself to that group.
Yes, that was it. How dumb of me :( I have now changed back the permission where 'others' do not have any: > ls -l /dev/nvidia* crw-rw---- 1 root video 195, 0 Dec 6 03:28 /dev/nvidia0 crw-rw---- 1 root video 195, 1 Dec 6 03:28 /dev/nvidia1 crw-rw---- 1 root video 195, 2 Dec 6 03:28 /dev/nvidia2 crw-rw---- 1 root video 195, 3 Dec 6 03:28 /dev/nvidia3 crw-rw---- 1 root video 195, 255 Dec 6 03:28 /dev/nvidiactl
and I am able to use the driver as a video group member. This makes feel a *lot* better :)
Well, it is 4:41 in the morning, when I was trying tuxracer it was a little after 3am :( The kernel, nvidia, mousedev, cdrom .... I guess enough for today ;)
I off to hit the sack, regards, ->HS
