Nothing close to windows but a) you don't have to be root to use it and b) the www user can't trash your files on the ntfs volume. Like I said, I've never used ntfs-3g but the above is a pretty common permissions model and it's reasonable to assume ntfs-3g probably implements it or something similar. As always, read the fine docs and YMMV. Thanks Neil, much appreciated. I'll have a play with the dmask, fmask settings as you suggest and see what gives. -- Regards, Mick Here it is in action...

[gentoo-user] kdm and pam issues after resume
Upon resuming my laptop from standby, kdm's screen locker does nothing, and /bin/login lags a lot before Password: comes up. Googling has led me to think that this might be a consolekit issue, as the syslog has cannot create /var/lib/kdm-4.5: Permission denied lines, in addition to the lag going away after Alt+Sysrq+{R,S,E,I} and reappearing after running init 3 to restart the killed processes. The lag in console mode is kinda like this: agetty \- login [lag] \-\- bash [lag] Apart from rebooting, are there any real solutions (apart from k-9ing the screen locker)? bugs.gentoo/295376,295799 are kinda vague. -- Andrey m05hbear Vul
