Autochanger Errors

If you are getting errors such as:

3992 Bad autochanger "load slot 1, drive 1": ERR=Child exited with code 1.

and you are running your Storage daemon as non-root, then most likely you are having permissions problems with the control channel. Running as root, set permissions on /dev/sgX so that the userid and group of your Storage daemon can access the device.
