Can't grant permission for video with users-admin

[Étienne BERSAC]

Hello,

I have a great supported nVidia-GeForce-FX-5600-and-so-on-AGP-3D-card. The
device /dev/card0 belong to the video group. But when i create a new user with
the users-admin program from the gnome-system-tools, i can't grant the
permission to the card with the new and pretty interfaces.

So i sugget just to add an entry in the list of « grantable » permissions.

Thanks.

An other possiblity is to always grant this permission (if you want to have few
permission in the list).

for the instance, the devices are /dev/nvidia0 and /dev/nvidiactl, but it
doesn't change the problem since they both belong to the « video » group.
Thanks

This should be part of the Desktop profile as well

Reassigned to myself since I am anyways going to do some changes to the default
profiles and fix another bug or two related to them.

Sivan asked me to take his bugs, since he does not have much time any more.
