hi all,

first time this has happened to me in the 4 yrs ive been using linux....new install of 10.2 on an acer 5100, unfortunately has an ati radeon 1100 chipset, any clue here?

steve@reilly:~> cd ~/Desktop steve@reilly:~/Desktop> su Password: reilly:/home/steve/Desktop # ./ati-driver-installer-8.32.5-x86.x86_64.run bash: ./ati-driver-installer-8.32.5-x86.x86_64.run: Permission denied reilly:/home/steve/Desktop #

Hmm, why not get root's environment? I'd do it like this: su - <enter root password> sh ~steve/Desktop/ati-driver-installer-8.32.5-x86.x86_64.run Joe -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
