I've seen this a few times, and I can't remember what caused it. I'll check through my notes when I get home.
Do you get the same information if you type: su - You really should use that instead of just su. With the "-" in there, it loads that users environment. If you just do a su, it still uses your environment. (i.e. ~/.bashrc, ~/.bash_profile, ~/.aliases, etc;) Try that, and I'll get back with you when I find out what causes it. tdh -- T.

I installed the program while in a user's directory | (not root) but as root in a terminal (hope it makes sense). Well, in any | case, I typed exit at the terminal to get back into user, but when I tried to | regain roots I got this error message: File Size Limit Exceeded. Any ideas | what the problem might be and/or possibly the fix? I checked the partitions | by typing "df" and as far as I can tell, I have plenty of room left (I have | pasted a copy of the output below): | | Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on | /dev/hda5 2.3G 1.2G 938M 58% / | /dev/hda7 1.5G 31M 1.4G 2% /home | /dev/hda1 33G 3.4G 29G 10% /mnt/windows | | I can still log out and log in as root, but I rather not have to do it. I | normally will type "su" at the terminal when I need to perform root | functions.
