user belongs to cdrom, not users[solved]

[BrummieJim]

Hi,
I was messing around trying to get xmms to use the cdrom without needing root priviledges and I've done something which means any files produced by my user now appear as cdrom, not users and the xmms freezes when I try and access the cdrom. As root the system requires a ctrl-alt-backspace to restart after trying to access a cd in xmms as root. Any ideas? My system is relatively stable, only installed jan 1st and here is my /etc/groups file:

root:x:0:root
bin:x:1:root,bin,daemon
daemon:x:2:root,bin,daemon
sys:x:3:root,bin,adm
adm:x:4:root,adm,daemon

Please help! Also, I've been told editing /etc/group isn't wise, and the evidence backs this up, but how can I add a user to a group without doing this.

Thank you
