Searching Google for "wrong permission /dev/pmu" only yields a total of 26 results, all but 8 of which are screened for being duplicates: <http://www.google.com/search?q=wrong+permission+%2Fdev%2Fpmu&start=0&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:unofficial> The only meaningful results from the Google search is this message from Kiko Piris in a July 2004 thread: <http://lists.debian.org/debian-powerpc/2004/07/msg00462.html> Applying Kiko's recommendation did not change the situation. Also, I don't think mucking about with udev is something we'd like to pass on to the average user. There were a number of Ubuntu-related hits, but none of them led to anything substantial. Searching debian-powerpc and debian-gtk-gnome for any of the following over the past year yields no results (which is particularly interesting given the subject of the July 2004 thread): "pmu" "wrong permission" (with partial match enabled) "permission" (with partial match enabled) 28 hits, none relevant I manually combed the 2004 archives month-by-month for debian-gtk-gnome and didn't find anything, either. So, if anyone has information about where this FAQ is addressed, I'd love to have it. Perhaps we can place the information in a more conspicuous location for everyone.
