I was having trouble with assigning burn rights to NeroLinux in Fedora 8. I followed the instructions from Nero, and also listed
here in this sticky.

A functional workaround: add the following to /etc/rc.local: Code: chmod o+r+w /dev/sg*
exit
note: there is an empty line after "exit".

This did not work. I tried changing the permissions by opening a File Manager as a SU, and changing the permissions. This worked, but it was not saved on reboot.
The /dev/sg* devices are listed as being in the "disk" group. I made the user (me) a member of that group (and other groups too). This did not work.
Finally I tried this.
Code:
chmod a+r+w /dev/sg*
exit
This works, and stays after a reboot. I was wondering if there is any problem with using the "a" (all) tag? It is only a DVD burner, after all.
