It looks like pam_console is setting this up correctly when I log in via console. It looks like my problem is only occuring when I log into KDE/Gnome via nx client. I suppose the since it's logging in via ssh the permissions are not applied like when logging in at the console. How can I fix this properly? (My hot fix would be setting this in rc.local) ------ pam_console should be setting that up for you when you log in.
