Did you ever run Subsurface as root?
This must be the cause, as that is the only way Subsurface can create files or dirs as root. Easy solution is to chown the files to your normal user e.g. chown -R willem ~/.subsurface Just use the correct user name, if it is not willem :D My guess is that you have run subsurface with sudo at some point e.g. due to insufficient privileges to download from DC (or by accident). miika _______________________________________________ subsurface mailing list [email protected] http://lists.subsurface-divelog.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/subsurface
