Hi, somewhere along the line my permissions on my dvd writer got screwed up and now I have to burn as root. Can anybody put me on the right track to restore user write permissions? User is a member of cdrom. Thanks in advance Dave P
So user has to be in group disk. (But I can remember that it was cdrom before :))
No, he does not need to be.
See the "+"? Is an ACL for this device handed out by our resmgr framework.
Run "getfacl /dev/sr0" to see its content.
This will work automatically if you login via gdm or kdm.
If it does not have the ACLs for you, something is amiss, please open a bugreport.
Ciao, Marcus This is the output from getfacl :- Arbuthnot:/home # getfacl /dev/sr0 getfacl: Removing leading '/' from absolute path names # file: dev/sr0 # owner: root # group: disk user::rw- group::r-- other::---
I assume the "group::r--" part is the reason for my problem. Thanks for the help, I used konqueror to change the group permissions for sr0 and sg1 and now k3b no longer complains. I don't know what changed the permissions yet but I will file a bug when I do.
No, it should be: # file: dev/sr0 # owner: <YOUR USERNAME> # group: disk user::rw- group::r-- other::--- How did you login? I hope as "YOUR USERNAME" ;) Ciao, Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
