Howdy, |

This is sort of weird. I upgraded my kernel to gentoo's 3.2.9. When I |
4 |
rebooted, I noticed some odd issues with permissions. When I try to log |
5 |
into Konsole or some other root access program, I get something like this: |
6 |
|
7 |
The program 'su' could not be found. |
8 |
Ensure your PATH is set correctly. |
9 |
|
10 |
or |
11 |
|
12 |
Permission denied. |
13 |
Possibly incorrect password, please try again. |
14 |
On some systems, you need to be in a special group (often: wheel) to use |
15 |
this program. |
16 |
|
17 |
This is also really odd permissions: |
18 |
|
19 |
-rws--x--x 1 root root 36680 Mar 16 23:36 su |
20 |
-rws--x--x 1 root root 52416 Mar 16 23:19 umount |
21 |
-rws--x--x 1 root root 42592 Mar 16 23:36 passwd |
22 |
|
23 |
There are a few others but you get the idea of my problem here. |
24 |
Somehow, the permissions seem to be off a bit. I have re-emerged the |
25 |
packages that own these files, no change. I have googled but only found |
26 |
old issues with this. |
27 |
|
28 |
I have not changed or even touched fstab in a good long while. I have |
29 |
not added or changed permissions regarding my user either. It seems |
30 |
some update has caused this but if re-emerging the package doesn't fix |
31 |
it, then what? I am in the wheel group. I'm also in the tty group. |
32 |
|
33 |
I rebooted to my previous kernel, thought maybe it was a config issue or |
34 |
something, no change. This was working a few days ago. |
35 |
|
36 |
Also, when I am in a console, I can log in as a user but can't su - to |
37 |
root. I can log in as root directly tho tho. So switching from user to |
38 |
root using su is out even in console. |
39 |
|
40 |
I have a new unbooted install on a separate drive, it has the same odd |
41 |
permissions on it. |
42 |
|
43 |
Anyone else seeing this? Any ideas on how to fix it? |
44 |
|
45 |
Thanks. |
