There are a couple of groups that you need to add your users to. - |
| 2 |
"dialout" and "uucp". |

|
| 4 |
Reading the message at the end of emerging wvdial tells you this. Also |
| 5 |
reading the ebuild gives you the same information. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
I am not criticising you, thiose messages flash by very quickly, and |
| 8 |
reading the ebuild is not everyone's first port of call, but if I |
| 9 |
educate one person to read the documentation and save one query to the |
| 10 |
list i guess my job is done :-) |

PS don't forget you have to log in again after you have been added to a |
| 13 |
group. and "id" is a good command to see what groups you are in. |
