Re: [Lmuse-user] compiling error 0.7 for Gentoo

[Sean P. <sea...@nt...>]

Allan.

The various sound and midi devices are mapped to my main user and the audio 
group, since I've set up the permissions in udev that way.  Hmmm, I wonder if 
udev has anything to do with this?  I don't know if Mandrake uses udev and if 
it doesn't that's another thing to eliminate/check out.

Thanks,
Sean.
