Message-ID: <20030227043711.L361@pearl.io.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Why can't I run seejpeg as a normal user? I am told "you must be the owner of the current console ..." But I AM the owner of /dev/console. I have option uconsole in the kernel and I have /dev/ttyv0 0600 /dev/console in /etc/fbtab. That makes me the owner of /dev/console (verified by peeking at /dev). Moreover seejpeg is suid root and I belong to group wheel. So how come I can't run seejpeg? -- Lars Eighner eighner@io.com -finger for geek code- http://www.io.com/~eighner/index.html 600 E 53RD ST APT 119 AUSTIN TX 78751 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
