gMFSK:Cannot open PTT device

gMFSK:Cannot open PTT device

[Henk Oegema]

How can I activate the the PTT device in gMFSK ? (COM1)
I have given commands:
# chmod ug+rw /dev/ttyS0

The serial port is normally owned by group "uucp"

I've added myself to this group:
# groupmod -A username uucp

However: When I open gMFSK I still get:
"Cannot open PTT device '/dev/ttyS0' : permission denied.

I'm using SuSE9.3

Did you logout after adding yourself to the group?
Group changes don't take effect until next login.

No I didn't. Have done it in the mean time and the error message is indeed
gone.
THANKS for your advice !
