Hi folks,

Probably an obvious question (bit of Linux newbie here I'm afraid) but why
would the permissions on my dvb devices reset to allow just root access each
time I reboot? Myth can't access them as the 'mythtv' user doesn't have
write permission but I change this using chmod... it just can't retain the
change...


After I got DVB working, the DVB devices (in /dev/dvb/adapter0/*) had no 
permissions so only root could see them.   The fix was to add

chmod 666 /dev/dvb/adapter0/*

to /etc/rc.d/rc.local

which resets them to something sensible each reboot.
