g'day, all
 i suppose that this has probably been addressed before, but i can't
seem to dig it up in the archives.
 as root, i can use minicom just fine. as a normal user, i get a message
along the lines of  'cannot access modem--premission denied'.
 what gives?? btw, had no problem getting ppp to dial as a normal user.

					thanks
