Bug Description
Binary package hint: sl-modem-daemon
Ubuntu Hardy
users and groups
unlock
manage groups
Slmodemd
Properties
found after unlocking
checking various groups for user permissions
Slmodemd group settings cannot be changed
can be viewed but have to cancel to leave
clicking ok gives you this
Group name has invalid characters
Please set a valid group name consisting of lower
case letter followed by lower case letters and numbers
[out of curiosity what is a lower case number :-)]
I believe the capital S on Slmodemd may be the issue :-] or :-)ete or even rotfl
Ubuntu Hardy
lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 8.04.1
Release: 8.04
apt-cache policy sl-modem-daemon
sl-modem-daemon:
Installed: 2.9.10+
Candidate: 2.9.10+
Version table:
*** 2.9.10+
500 http://
100 /var/lib/
i expected to be able to click ok whether modifying or not modifying the group settings
as per all the other groups i visited.
Slmodemd group does not allow this
This may affect other permissions if group name is incorrect format.
ie i am having more difficulty consistently with ALSA and atiixp with Hardy
than with Feisty or Gutsy (ie slmodemd normally took care of atiixp-modem
but does not seem to do so as nicely in Hardy but up to now i have
never looked at the group permissions for this group)
