I had an ancient version, which I've been copying to new installs for years. It was... shm /dev/shm tmpfs nodev,nosuid,noexec 0 0 I changed over to your line, and rebooted, but no difference. I finally did things the hard way in fstab... none /dev/shm tmpfs rw,noatime,noexec,nosuid,nodev 0 0 ...and in /etc/local.d/000.start I've added a chmod line... #!/bin/bash mount devpts chmod 1777 /dev/shm Note that on my system, "defaults" in fstab allows scripts to execute on /dev/shm, which is generally frowned on. "noexec" blocks that, notwithstanding the chmod 1777. Out of sheer curiousity, what happens when you create file /dev/shm/hello with 2 lines... #!/bin/bash echo "Hello World" ...and then you chmod 755 /dev/shm/hello /dev/shm/hello Does it execute or come back with permission denied? -- Walter Dnes <waltd...@waltdnes.org> I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
