I had the same problem. The way i fixed it was to add the user into a particular group. I forget which group it was though (I dont have access to my gentoo machine at work), but if you look at /etc/group it might be obvious. Balaji

If I log in as root then log out and in as user I can't su. Once in as user I can't log in on another console as root or su, it just hangs. Then trying to reboot using ctl alt del it hangs til I've tried that combo 2 or 3x. Anyone have any clue what would do that to my system? One of the weirder errors during all this is I had links installed(I've since taken it out) and when running it as root in console using -mode flag it was fine. However when I tried the same as user I got an I/O error. Right before all this several packages got updated. Kdeutils, kdetoys, gentools, and one other file.(ack I can't remember... I've got the darn flu so dealing with brain fog here) I also reciently did a "emerge depclean" and it removed 22 files not in use. However I noticed when kdeutils and kdetoys upgraded that I can still find in /usr/kde the /usr/kde/3/ with files still in it sitting along side the /usr/kde/3.1/ shouldn't it of removed the kde3 when installing kde3.1? One final question is how do I rememerge all world files? Since somethings were installed I've used "ufed" and changed some flags. I'd like to remerge things compiled under the current flags. I tried "emerge world" however that didn't work. Thanks in advance :) -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
