Users won't be permitted to do other privileged operations, such as loading kernel modules, so in some cases the mount may still fail. k! To set vfs.usermount=1 on every boot, add it to /etc/sysctl.conf (see sysctl.conf(8)). Did that. One way to give access to assorted files and devices to the user currently logged in on the local console is to use /etc/fbtab (see fbtab(5)), thus: /dev/ttyv0 0600/dev/acd0 /dev/ttyv0 0755/cdrom That was the trick! thanx ...

Thanx for the tip. I just deleted all I could find with rm. I dont know if that was a good move however. pkgdb -F now tells me off.

pkg_delete multimedia/mplayer doesn't work
hello I do like this from /usr/ports. pkg_delete multimedia/mplayer*, right. And then I get that nothing is installed. I test mplayer finds it still working. Should it not have been deleted? When I go into the directory of ports/mplayer and try deinstall it. It says deinstalling for mplayer, but afterwars I can still run it. thanks /jobse ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
