Binaries won't ship SUID root, and for this good reason, I am not going to tell you how to enable it. However, I notice there is a group called cdwriter. If CDRW's were mounted with GID cdwriter by default, then probably they don't even need to be SUID root, and the messages could be disabled in Mandrake via a patch. To use the CDRW your user would have to be in group cdwriter. -- Sincerely, David Walluck <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
