@Martin Pitt: Mounting as ext4 enables acl by default, but mounting as ext3 doesn't (see the linux kernel documentation).
My system was installed in November 2007, long before ext4 was stable (December 2008), so naturally '/' is formatted as ext3. I suppose other people have older filesystems too, or they chose not to use ext4 for some other reason. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1048059 Title: Adding ACLs to /media/$user does not work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/1048059/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
