Hi, I'm not sure what this option allows: # Allow ordinary users to take the console - this is useful for X. options UCONSOLE I have this configured in my kernel config, but I still can't run xconsole as a non-root user (program launches with "Couldn't open console" error). Am I misunderstanding something? thanks, -- Joel Hatton -- Security Analyst | Hotline: +61 7 3365 4417 AusCERT - Australia's national CERT | Fax: +61 7 3365 7031 The University of Queensland | WWW: www.auscert.org.au Qld 4072 Australia | Email: auscert@auscert.org.au
