[PlanetCCRMA] midi permissions

[Crispin]

Hi

I'm completely baffled as to what's going on here.  According to ls -l I
have permission to use the device midi01 (I can use it as root btw).  But
when I try with cat... I can't.

[crispin at renato crispin]$ ls -l /dev/midi01
crwx------    1 crispin  root      14,  18 Feb  5 14:16 /dev/midi01
[crispin at renato crispin]$ cat >/dev/midi01
bash: /dev/midi01: Permission denied

What is going on?  How can I give a program midi access without running it
as root?

Thanks,
