Hi all After my most recent sid apt-get dist-upgrade gmix has stopped working :( It pops up a dialog box reporting it couldn't open the sound device - check permission to /dev/mixer and that sound is compiled into the kernel. Well the latter is okay as it works fine for root. Permission on /dev/mixer after the upgrade was crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 0 Jul 5 2000 /dev/mixer and my userID is a member of the group audio. Even changing permissions to crw-rw-rw- 1 root audio 14, 0 Jul 5 2000 /dev/mixer doesn't improve things.
Is gmix supposed to be setuid - I don't remember ever changing this. Sound works okay for my user, just not the mixer properties (the equaliser in xmms doesn't work either).
