    Permission troubles

    Hi;

    I can use xine as root or as knoppix, but not as myself ("steve").

    I added myself to the knoppix group via

    usermod steve -G knoppix

    Sure enough, in /etc/group steve is a member of knoppix.

    Any ideas on how I can enable things so I can use xine as 'steve'

    Thanks in advance

    Steve

    In a console window as root adduser steve video to add yourself to obvisously the video group. Some other groups you may want to belong to: floppy, cdrom, audio and src. To check which groups you belong too in a console groups or id.

    note: You have to log out then back in for the changes to take effect.

    I did all of those, plus knoppix. I ran groups to confirm I was in all of those groups. I rebooted my entire machine.

    I chmoded (as root) /cdrom, /dev/hdc, and /dev/dvd.

    I am still getting "can't find mrl" messages from xine if I am not logged in as root or knoppix
