Re: ?Audio Group?

[Heikki Vatiainen <hessu@cs.tut.fi>]

Here's the listing of the files in /dev belonging to the audio group:

rae:~: 18:06 >find /dev/ -group audio -ls
 32958    0 crw-rw----   1 root     audio     14,   3 Dec 18 23:55 /dev/dsp
 32959    0 crw-rw----   1 root     audio     14,   0 Dec 18 23:55 /dev/mixer
 32960    0 crw-rw----   1 root     audio     14,   1 Dec 18 23:55 
/dev/sequencer
 32961    0 crw-rw----   1 root     audio     14,   2 Dec 18 23:55 /dev/midi00

As you can see all audio related files are already writable for everybody in 
the group 'audio'. I just added all the audio users in the group 'audio'. 
Here's the audio line from the /etc/group file:

rae:~: 19:21 >grep audio /etc/group
audio:*:29:heikki,johanna 


You might have to logout and login for the changes to take effect.
