I just got a camera, so I set things up and added myself to the plugdev group. But:
[coelacanth ~ 09:09:00]$ groups
wheel games wolfson
[coelacanth ~ 09:09:01]$ su
Password:
coelacanth wolfson # groups wolfson
wheel games wolfson plugdev
coelacanth wolfson # su wolfson
[coelacanth ~ 09:09:07]$ groups
wheel games wolfson plugdev
[coelacanth ~ 09:09:09]$
What? I'm not recognized as belonging to plugdev when I log in, but if I su to root and then back to myself, it works? What's going on here? |

| Maybe you left it out, but did you log out as root? It's not in your list of commands. |
