Tried this but it does not correctly set the permission upon reboot. In fact I put these entries in both 10-local.rules and 10-udev.rules KERNEL:="console", NAME="%k", GROUP="tty", MODE="0666" KERNEL:="null", NAME="%k", MODE="0666" Looking around at /dev and /etc/udev/rules.d/ It seem as though the other devices are getting permissions correctly set. I did notice something very peculiar about dev/null Here is dev /null before I correct it: crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 3 Oct 22 2000 /dev/null What's up with the date? Also, I do not have to change permission on /dev/null to get the kconsole sessions to run correctly. But I do want 666 on dev/null upon reboot, as I use it extensively (old unix habits)..... Any other ideas? James -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
