In my lab, there are lots of users in an LDAP database. These users are
assigned to the groups audio,video,plugdev,etc. by pam_group (using
the /etc/security/groups.conf file). The problem is, DBUS doesn't recognize
users as being in groups unless they're in /etc/group, which isn't practical
for our setup. So, there are permission problems with USB sticks, kpowersave,
etc. (well, there *will* be, once I upgrade to a more recent KDE version).
On my laptop, I can use (the kludge) "adduser $uname plugdev"... this won't
work in the lab.
