Or should this be run as > root(but then launching user-space programs as root for mail etc)? No, I'm running at under my user. As read access to this device seems to be enough to run tpb, I changed to group of the device to users and gave the group read permissons. But I don't think this is ok for everyone. Maybe adding a new group thinkpad is the best sollution (that's how the debian package does it)? Then every user who is in this group can access the thinkpad specific stuff. > Also, should there not be some way of starting it as a daemon > automatically (/etc/X11/xinit.d/ or /etc/rc.d/init.d ?). Well, I use gnome session control to start it using: /usr/bin/tpb --config=/home/mr/.tpb/tpbrc I don't know if you can just start it without X, but I don't think so?! > How about changing some of the defaults, such as: > OSDPOS middle > OSDALIGN center Yeah, I'm using that as well: OSDFONT -adobe-helvetica-bold-r-normal-*-*-140-*-*-p-*-iso8859-15 OSDCOLOR Green OSDVERTICAL 45 OSDHORIZONTAL 0 OSDPOS bottom OSDALIGN center (I also have to specify the font, otherwise I get an error message and no OSD). Hmmm... are you going to change this or shall I send you a new spec? -- Michael Reinsch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://mr.uue.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------
