hi to all |
2 |
i'm having some problems, with, i think, the permissions |
3 |
of /dev/null /dev/console and /dev/zero. every time i boot they're set up to |
4 |
660, like this |
5 |
|
6 |
crw-rw---- 1 renna root 5, 1 Jul 13 17:04 /dev/console |
7 |
crw-rw---- 1 root root 1, 3 Apr 9 06:31 /dev/null |
8 |
crw-rw---- 1 root root 1, 5 Apr 9 06:31 /dev/zero |
9 |
|
10 |
so when i login as a normal user, i get |
11 |
/dev/null: Permission denied |
12 |
|
13 |
and i have to |
14 |
chmod 666 /dev/null |
15 |
|
16 |
to be able to login in kde |
17 |
|
18 |
furthermore, in kde, when i launch konsole, the window of konsole shows up, |
19 |
but there's only the cursor blinking, and i cannot enter commands - i have to |
20 |
ctrl+alt+fn to a terminal |
21 |
and allways in kde, when i launch a program that requires root's password, as |
22 |
kuser, i get a window with this message |
23 |
|
24 |
The program 'su' is not found; |
25 |
make sure your PATH is set correctly. |
26 |
|
27 |
though su, which is perfectly working in a terminal, is in /bin which IS in my |
28 |
PATH |
29 |
|
30 |
i really don't know if these problems in kde are correlated with the |
31 |
permissions in dev, but on google i found many persons having problems with |
32 |
udev and having more or less the same problems (though i couldn't find a |
33 |
solution to my case). i tried, as explained on |
34 |
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/udev-guide.xml#doc_chap3 |
35 |
to mknod new null and console in /dev, but when i boot the permissions are |
36 |
again set to 660. |
37 |
does somebody have an idea of what i should do? if there's some information i |
38 |
lacked to give please ask |
39 |
thanks |
