People with other Linux distros see exactly the same issues, so no, it is not an Ubuntu issue. As Pat pointed out, it is true Ubuntu has changed, however it does requires application developers to implement changes, which doesn't seem to have happened with SBS. And I have not claimed it is a userdid issue. The userid can be "Beijing Bicycles" for all I care. Once again, for the last time, it is about user *privileges*. and whatever userid SBS is going for these days is not installed with useful privileges, which is why many Ubuntu users need to fiddle around with permission settings manually post-installation to allow SBS to access an external drive that is there to be used by everybody. See attached - it is a silly setting. +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: userprivs.jpg | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=8884| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- pablolie ...pablo Server: Shuttle X27D - Ubuntu 8.04LTS - SBS 7.4.1 Sources: SB3 (3), SB Boom (3), Duet (1), Accuphase DP65v CD Amplifier: Accuphase E306v - Creek OBH21/22 Loudspeakers: Ceeroy 3-way tower (tuned) - Audioengine 5/S8 - Acoustic Energy Aego M Headphones: Grado SR-1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pablolie's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3816 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=71700 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
