Re: /dev/audio



-> Every time I use tkdesk as a user it says permission denied to write to
-> /dev/audio. As root I hear the sounds fine.
-> What permissions do I have to cahnge.

hmmm if you log on console you should be added to group "audio"
as in /etc/login.defs:

#
# List of groups to add to the user's supplementary group set
# when logging in on the console (as determined by the CONSOLE
# setting).  Default is none.
#
# Use with caution - it is possible for users to gain permanent
# access to these groups, even when not logged in on the console.
# How to do it is left as an exercise for the reader...
#
CONSOLE_GROUPS          floppy:audio:cdrom

how do you log in ? do you have this defined ?
