Out of interest, what do you get if you log in as yourself and run the command 'id'? [nicky@fidelispc] ~ [1] id uid=1000(nicky) gid=1000(nicky) groups=4(adm),20(dialout),24(cdrom),29(audio),46(plugdev),108(lpadmin),123(admin),124(sambashare),1000(nicky) As you can see, my user id is member of group 'audio'. If you are not in the group that you configure to have rtlimits capabilities then you will natural not get those permissions. Root will still have them. It was just a thought, you report that root works, you don't. If you want to be in the audio group then either edit /etc/group or use whatever klunky system tool that does it for you. Kind regards, nick,. "we have to make sure the old choice [Windows] doesn't disappear”.
