Thanks for the replies, sorry I haven't been back in touch for a few days. |

If I click Properties and select the Permissions tab the User is -me(my user |
| 28 |
name), Group is root. On the access Permissions part the Owner is set to "Can |
| 29 |
View Contents". |
| 30 |
If I change this to "Can View & Modify Content" and click "OK" I get an error |
| 31 |
message "Could not change permissions for /media/lomega HDD". |
| 32 |
I am on kde3.10. |
| 33 |
Their must be a way of defining default permissions for anything plugged into |
| 34 |
the usb port. |
| 35 |
Can anyone help with this issue please. |
| 36 |
Thanks |
