Hi Claude and Steve,
the easiest command to add a user to a group on Linux is:
sudo adduser $USER dialout
then log out (log out means log out of the desktop session, not just the
terminal window), and back in. Use the 'id' command to check membership.
On some systems (non-Linux) the correct group is 'uucp', just look at
which group devices are in to determine which group you need to be a
member of.

Clause,
A minor correction here: its -G
i.e. sudo usermod -a -G adm,tty,disk,dialout,audio,video,plugdev <user>
There is a little "over-caution" in places here !

Many thanks, Stephen, for this very interesting information and for your tips.

In my own environment, using Fedora, it was important to add "dialout".
Best wishes,
