Ideally, there should be two different messages for either the user's home drive permissions, or the .dmrc file permissions.
For Dapper, can that message be changed to "Either your home directory or the .dmrc file (a hidden file) in it is set to be writable by other users. This is insecure. This prevents the default session and language from being saved. You can change the permissions of your home folder or of that file once you log into you session. This warning will be displayed every time you log until the permissions are changed back." Also, ideally, that dialog box should have the option of no longer being displayed. So, should file a seperate bug updstream about that? Is changing the message feasable for Dapper? -- GDM cannot write to authorisation file https://launchpad.net/bugs/33132 -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
