Would that really help much? With the permissions as
they are 'others' have
both read and write permissions too, right? (So mplayer running as a
regular user should still be able to use the device...)
Yes, sorry, you are right.
I tried to answer quickly, without really
looking into the specifics of your problem...
What is a possible cause, is maybe that
the correct device driver that goes
with the /dev/ node is not loaded as a
module or compiled into the kernel ?
