By default on my system, the /media and /mnt directories are owned by root:root, and since that got in my way when I was in a hurry, I simply changed their ownership to owner:owner. I know this isn't proper, but my setting up sidux on a X61s Thinkpad offers an opportunity for me to start out the right way.
My inclination would be to assign these directories to a group and make user a member of that group. But no default group name seems to fit right, which makes me suspect this might not be the proper way after all. When I plug in a usb-stick, it is assigned the interface sdb, which on sidux is owned by root/floppy. Should /media be owned by root/floppy? How about /mnt? -- Haines Brown, KB1GRM -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
