Talk:Tpb
"Note that on some systems the "nvram" module will need to be loaded before tpb will work, as tpb needs to write to this device. If you run tpb in user-space, you will need write permissions (and, possibly, read); it is probably best to simply add users to a "nvram" group."
Indeed, it may be much easier to get tpb to work properly if you add your user to the nvram group.
