Hi, I seem to have a weird problem with groups, it seems like the system doesn't notice that I am in certain groups when it comes to file permissions, and if I run groups or id with no arguments it also has some groups missing from the list, but with my username as an argument it is complete. I've never encountered this before, does anyone know what the problem might be?
