Yes, but different platforms are one thing. Making a patch for every possible
scenario on every platform is next to impossible, though. As mentioned. I
have seven audio devices, someone else may have 4, or 14.
Some people are probably okay with chown /dev/dsp*, others might want to
chown their primary sound device only, or a dedicated secondary one. There
are way too many variables to come up with a single patch.

The dtlogin manpage reads:
=======================================================
                 In order to support "Command Line Login"  mode,  the  display
                 must  have  an  associated  Internal  Terminal Emulator (ITE)
                 device. By default, dtlogin associates the ITE  device  "con-
                 sole"  (  /dev/console) with display ":0".
=======================================================


Kind regards,

Martin Etteldorf
