Try this: In the F10 Gnome desktop System Menu->System->Authorizations In the Authorizations gui tree select org->freedesktop->hal->device access->serial modems Change the authorizations to whatever you like. You can open to all users you can open to just the active console user, you can select users. For the sake of testing open it up to anyone without needing authentication. Once that is modified try plugging in the usb serial device and seeing if access works for your user. -jef -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
