Comment 30 for bug 269509

Martin, ahh, yes I think we've had several bug reports about that.

What package is responsible for setting these permissions? hal? Can it be updated to set them more permissively?

If not, then it sounds like user accounts need to be set up to be included in the video group. I notice my current account has this group, but this system has been upgraded since hardy; perhaps fresh installs miss it?
