huh? Every linux user knows that when he downloads an executable program, he has to do "chmod u+x" on it before he can execute it. At no point in this advice is it said they have to su to root first. In file managers, the interface allows you to change permissions on files to your heart's content. So if by "duped" you mean "told repeatedly, on mailing lists and in documentation", then yes, you have been duped Anders -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
