using sudo to get root, vgdisplay complains not to be run as root, while "su" works fine:
bad: ---- harald harald > sudo -s root's password: harald # id ^ This is run as root uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root),14(uucp) harald harald > vgdisplay --partial --verbose ^ This is not ?? Absolute path to 'vgdisplay' is '/sbin/vgdisplay', so running it may require superuser privileges (eg. root). harald # suspend [5]+ Stopped sudo -s
I have no idea how to reproduce this. Would you explain some detailed steps ? Thank. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Good, I'm closing it as invalid then :) Thanks for the feedback, and feel free to reopen it if you can reproduce it again. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
