 |
|
Hallo,
I have a "problem" with permissons of /dev/sound/dsp.
When I boot, the file has "right" permissions:
| Code: | | crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 3 1970-01-01 /dev/sound/dsp |
After I log in as normal user with group audio enabled and start KDE,
the permissions of file are changed to:
| Code: | | crw------- 1 roman audio 14, 3 1970-01-01 /dev/sound/dsp |
When I logout from KDE the permissions are left to roman.
So as I log in KDE as another user, let's say guest also with audio
group enabled, this user can't use the sound anymore....
What is the solution? Or is this way of changing permissions to first
user, who use the audio, allright?
Roman. |

Edit /etc/security/consoleperms
I had the same problem (it is also needed for "floppy" access via mtools) |

I have the exact same problem. Sound is working for root but, it does not work for other users.
What did you edit in console.perms.
I changed it to this:
| Code: | <sound>=/dev/sound/dsp* /dev/audio* /dev/sound/midi* \
/dev/sound/mixer* /dev/sequencer* \
/dev/sound/* /dev/snd/* /dev/beep \
/dev/admm* \
/dev/adsp* /dev/aload* /dev/amidi* /dev/dmfm* \
/dev/dmmidi* /dev/sndstat |
(I replaced the /dev/dsp to /dev/sound/dsp and so on)
But it did not help.
I do not have alsa installed. I compiled my sound card module into the kernel.
Can someone tell me where to look? |

I found two minor glitches that were stopping pam_console from setting device ownerships correctly:
1. The console.perms file refers to groups cdwriter and usb, which are not in /etc/group. This causes pam to crash out in getgrnam.
2. The file /etc/pam.d was *missing* the pam_console entry. It needs the following line at the end:
session optional /lib/security/pam_console.so
Hope this helps! |
