Firstly, I suggers you attach the file rather than a screenshot of it. its much
smaller.
As for the problem, the files you might need to change the settings on are
/dev/sd*, /mnt/zip. I would just set the
other permissions on those.
the command is (as root):
chmod o+rwx /dev/sd*
chmod o+rwx /mnt/zip
see if that does anything. This will gice everyone write access to all your
scsi devies as a side-effect.#
And lasty, a problem of mine. Once again kmail is slowing everything down to
the point where there is a 5 second delay between me pushing abbutton and
anything happening on screen. Why? It makes typeing very hard and spelling even
harder/
