If I am not mistaken, ConsoleKit uses ACLs to grant the currently active user access to various /dev nodes. E.g., with ConsoleKit you don't need to put users into "video", "audio" and "cdrom" groups anymore (corresponding to v4l, sound, and dvd/cdrom devices), so access permissions are more fine-grained and based on need. -- Maxim Kammerer Liberté Linux (discussion / support: http://dee.su/liberte-contribute)
