Thanks guys. I finally did find a way to do it, but had to do a search with different key word(s).

sudo adduser username dialout

That did the trick. It's that old adage, "if you don't use it, you lose it". I have gotten quite rusty with my linux because I seldom use it. I was helping another local ham install Linux Mint on his PC, then xastir for setting up an iGate. I could open the ttyS0 with minicom, but not xastir. I knew it was a permissions problem, but.... memory (or lack thereof)... lol
