1. Every time I boot, I have to chmod 777 on /dev/dsp for a non-root user to make sound. Any ideas for making it stick between boots?

2. Mount is only avalible for root. A nonroot user cannot mount cdrom.

3. Volume in KDE is very low. Is there a way to adjust volumes and save the levels between boots?

4. When I su, roots path is not working...I have to type /sbin/shutdown vice shutdown. Any way to get the path thingy to work?

thanks

1. Edit the permissions in /etc/devfsd.conf, or add the target user to the audio group.

2. Make sure /bin/mount is in your path and has the right permissions

3. Use kmix and "Save current volumes as default"

4. Try "su -" instead.

Oh:

2. Double check that /dev/cdrom has the "user" option set in /etc/fstab

User option is /stc/fstab? I'm a little lost.

Like this:

Code:

# <fs>                  <mountpoint>    <type>          <opts>                  <dump/pass>

/dev/cdroms/cdrom0      /mnt/cdrom      iso9660         noauto,ro,user          0 0


Options for /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 are noauto (don't mount on boot), ro (read-only), and user (let users mount and unmount if they mounted it).
