You could change the permissions of /usr/share but the Mandrake Security system msec will only change them back again. /usr/share is a system folder and should be owned by root. If you want to add a folder to it, then you must do so as root. An easy way to do that is K Menu>Applications>FileTools>FileManager(SuperUserMode) That gives you a konqueror window running as root, and you can screw up your system to your hearts content with it. derek -- ---------------------------------- www.jennings.homelinux.net http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org
