Why do I get EACCESS?

[Peter Silva]

Many terminal emulators start non-login shells.  It's a configurable option.

in your shell window you can try:

bash --login

and see what your groups look like.  When I used to use KDE, I modified the
settings so that every window was a login shell. but it's been 10 years,
and I don't remember the setting... fwiw... if you can select stuff in
konsole with the mouse... ... I wrote that (probably re-written by someone
else twice since) in the late 90's...
