Hello all,

  Even if this is not a laptop specific issue, I would appreciate your
help on the following point. I have a 1Gb vfat partition that I intended
to use for sharing files between Linux and Win98. I can access it nicely
from LINUX, but I cwn write on it only if I a root user. I tried to mount
it with different options but never succeeded to make it writable by 
standard users. The 'chown joeuser' issued as superuser does not work either
on files/directory in this partition. 
  How can I make this vfat partition writable by standard user?
  Thanks in advance,  

                Gerald Carrier.
