RedHat Just Works > out of the box for desktop use. Debian... doesn't. uhh.. imho that broke a lot more things than it fixed, sure it works just fine when one use and one user only logs into the box from console, but things get wierd once you try to ssh in and burn a CD for example, in gentoo(and i think debian as well) it does it using group permissions ie /dev/dsp is owned by root:audio so if you want people to be able to use audio you add the to the audio group, if you want people to be able to play games, you add them to the games group, and so on and so forth -- Munir Nassar RedConcepts.NET http://redconcepts.net/ _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
