/dev/video0 chmod

Post by slahm »

I seem to have to do this

chmod 666 /dev/video0

every time I restart.

Is this normal, and if so, any quick fixes for it?

Thanks

Peter

Just make sure the user that ZM runs as is in group 'video' or whatever group has access to the /dev/video* devices on your distro...
