I think it's Xubuntu 16.04 but it's running as a CHROOT on top of Chrome OS using Chrome's kernel for hardware access. Installed using the Crouton scripts. I haven't yet looked at FLDIGI with my Navigator interface to see which groups it's 6 USB ports fall into.

Good point. dialout was the defacto standard for so long that us long term *NX people still go by it. It's like saying I'm going to tape something on my DVR. I guess now that modems and serial interfaces are legacy items on most computers it would make sense for the newer distros to make them separate. I'm actually glad you made this post. I have a script I use to install the FLdigi suite and other apps on new computers and I didn't include adding the user to required group.
Can I ask which distro you are using?

We keep insisting that Linux (and possibly Mac) users add themselves to the "dialout" group.
Didn't work for me. My system allocates /div/ttyUSBx to the "serial" group so if you cannot access your USB/serial ports, check permissions for the /dev/ttyUSBx device to see which group it's a member of.
