Ubuntu access to Commsport
In the manual is says to add your user to the 'dialout', 'lock' and/or 'uucp' groups in order to access commsport. How do i add a user to the group? Here is a picture of the terminal when I try to connect my computer to my MS2.

Re: Ubuntu access to Commsport
I think that the dialout group is the most important one.
I hope it fixed it!

On many recent distros user needs to be member of "lock" group as well.
