I would like my /usr directory to belong to the wheel group and for the
group to have write privileges. I can set these options, but when I go
back later they're reset to root as the group owner and the group having
no write privilege. I suspect this is some sort of security process

I'm trying to mount an NTFS partition and make it readable by non-root.
Regardless of how I mount it, however, it ends up with permissions of
600. I can read it as root but not as a regular user. The following is
an edited copy of the command line which shows what's happening:

You may also need to do one or both of the following:
1. edit /etc/ld.so.conf and ensure that the libraries that these have
installed are included
2. execute ldconfig

seems likely that the XK35c shares a chipset with one of the scanners

asked Xerox - no answer so far).
Any pointers would be appreciated.

my guess is that it is more of an RPM issue. When you install files
(e.g. the jdk files) using something other than rpm (e.g. executing .sh
install) then the rpm database does not get modified to reflect the
existence of the newly installed files.
Actually, I have the same problem, and running from the command line
does *not* solve it...

Try adding "ExecCGI" to your Options like so:
AllowOverride None
Options ExecCGI
Order allow,deny

If none of the suggestions so far helps, it would probably be helpful to
include the contents of the httpd.conf file for people to inspect. (and
the access.conf file, if that is separate). My guess would be that you
may need to fix a .. section.

You could probably manually unmount and then remount as read-write by
doing something like:
umount /dev/hdc8
mount -t vfstype -o rw /dev/hdc8 /mnt
I don't know offhand how ReiserFS is designated in the -t parameter -
you'll have to make the appropriate substitution for "vfstype"

I have had similar experiences, and think the problem has to do with the
way that the RPMs (and the RPM database) specify dependencies. It
appears to me that when an RPM is installed, an entry is made in the
database of what files have been installed (e.g.
"/usr/lib/libexample.so.1") When anothe
I have a similar(?) problem - instead of vanishing, the menubar get
"fuzzy". This will occur after the screensaver, and also sometimes
after hiding. It can be cleared up with a screen refresh, but once it
happens it will recur every time the bar is hidden.
I don't know too much about it, but Samba has provisions for interacting
with a Windows "winpopup" facility. (however, it appears that winpopup
is not active by default.)
they get to the newsgroup anyway...
Is there a way to determine what compiler settings where used to
generate an executable?
I am familiar with the Unix/Linux 'file' command, but I think this only
gives information on whether symbol information was stripped or not, but
not details on the compile.

Are Mandrake *source* RPMs available for download somewhere? I am
especially interested in seeing the compiler settings for some of the
RPMs included with Mandrake.
