Hi, I had the same problem with nvidia and WINE.
At my computer /dev/nvidia and dev/nvidiactl had the GID 44, but looking into /etc/group I saw, that the "video" group had the GID 1003 (and I am sure i never changed anything there). And <myusername> was of course part of the group "video" (=1003) but not of 44. I changed the GID of the group "video" to 44 (simply changing the number in /etc/group) And I changed the GID of /dev/video0 from 1003 (the former "video") to "video"(=44) as well (sudo chgrp video /dev/video0). This solved the problem for me (after a reboot). Hope this helps. -- [Intrepid] Wine doesn't have permissions for /dev/nvidiactl https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/288852 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
