Hello

This means that someone somewhere is modifying the ttyS0 serial port after udev sets it up. But I do not know who. It is no software that I have installed, as none of that runs. I do not have ppp installed (unless it is some default activity set up by the SUSE 10 install). I see that the port belongs to me, but I do not know why.
Any ideas?
from memory it's affected if you have a mouse (even if using another connection method), plus there are some kernal settings tied to that port. Have a look at the kernal notes/faq, you may have to recompile or build your own.
I have checked a bit more. When I boot to runlevel 5 (default - GUI login), and instead of logging in here, switch to the character console and log in, the ttyS0 permissions remain as I want. So they survive at least this far. I have tried logging in with failsafe and WindoMaker sessions to see if it was something that KDE was doing. The permissions are modified for both. So it is not specific to KDE. Current finger points at X. But, only after someone logs in - not when X is running to show the GUI login. So, I know more, but still not enough. -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems AB Ramböll Sverige AB Kapellgränd 7 P.O. Box 4205 SE-102 65 Stockholm, Sweden Tel: Int +46 8-615 60 20 Fax: Int +46 8-31 42 23
