[Suse 9.1]
see below for a thread discussing a previous attempt at fixing this. Basically I have set my umask to 0002 in /etc/profile.local. When users create files at the terminal, they get the expected perms, rw-rw-r--. But in Konqueror this doesn't work. Instead I get rw-r--r--.
In response to the suggestions below from the previous thread here are my results. This doesn't seem to be the problem:
Does this help: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43172 I think you're not looking at the problem from the right angle. KDE doesn't _reset_ the umask. The problem is more that your bashrc/profile/... file that sets the umask isn't read ("sourced") at KDE startup. This is the typical "kdm should read the profile" kind of request, which I'm not the best person to answer (check with Ossi, kdm's author, I'm sure he knows why it's that way). If I'm correct, then when you use "startx" the umask is correct (since in that case it will have been set by the shell launching startx). -- Richard Bos Without a home the journey is endless
