Hello, The pkg-message for the devel/arduino port contains this: "To allow serial port locking, add your user to the dialer group:" " pw usermod myuser -G dialer" It is good to explain what a user have to do to get serial access. However, if you use that pw command, it will remove your user from any other groups than the dialer group. Which might be annoying. Better to use this: pw groupmod dialer -m myuser it will ony affect the dialer group, and not mess with any other groups. HTH -- Regards, Torfinn Ingolfsen
