Hi: My f16 installation has been successively upgraded from about f12. My tv cards are recognised by the kernel, but ioctl problems have interfered with the setting up of new cards while not affecting the use of those already known. A post I saw today claimed that apparently similar problems in Ubuntu could be cured by re-adding a user somehow lost from the video group. http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/16/html/System_Administrators_Guide/s2-redhat-config-users-group-properties.html My attempts to add a user with the User Manager fail. I'm told the video group already exists, try a new name. I deleted and re-created the (empty) video group and still could not add any users to it. Now the two User Manager windows cannot be closed; attempts to minimise them just redraw them. Any suggestions gratefully received.
Direct editing of /etc/group seems to have been effective but the GUI still is not. Recognition of the tv cards, which started failing with kernel>3.3.7-1, is still unreliable.
