[SLE] Reiserfs: home permissions problem
- From: fxf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (Fx Fraipont)

I have decided to start my SuSE 7 installation on a new HD with a Reiser
fs. Everything went fine, until I logged into X as a non-root user.
Kde, or any other wm for that matter, won't start.
I looked into the matter, and realised that when I created new users
with yast, the corresponding home directory could not be created . I
created the home user directory manually, changed owners, group, and the
permissions, but I still can't get it to work: Kde launches, announces
'creating /home/userx/.kde... , and then complains about the permissions
not being right.
I checked and rechecked the permissions, and all seems right to me.
What am I doing wrong? Why doesn't Yast (1) create the home directory
for the new user I have created, and automatically set the right RWX
permissions? I there something I have overlooked in Reiserfs?
I would appreciate your learned opinions. Thanks
