I need to create a new group - 'plugdev' - and make my user a member of the group (it's apparently necessary for android dev tools).
On Unix systems, adding a user to a group doesn't change existing processes. That's why id(1) doesn't show the new group right away.
To solve this, you need to log out or you need to start a new login shell, for example by using "ssh localhost". Login shells create a new user instance and attach it to itself and all children.
Actually, just starting a new shell using su user (not su - user) was sufficient, so it doesn't need to be a login shell.
but "su <suer>" starts a "log in shell".
No, it does not. Just do "echo $LOGNAME" after "su <other-user>". -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
