Hi..
On my openSuSE 10.3 I have installed Kptc.
I have problems running Kptc as a user.
This is what I have in Yast2:
Login:erikja
Name:Erik Jakobsen
UID:1000
Groups:uucp,dialout,video,users
What about that ?

Hi All,
There is a new version of twclock at http://wa0eir.ham.org
This version fixes a couple bugs, including a permission problem
on some systems that prevented beeping the PC speaker.
The makefile also supports DESTDIR, which should make life
easier for distro maintainers.
