What does getfacl say about the ACLs of these files and directories?

I'm thinking of backing up the drive and reformatting it under this install to see if that does it. -- Chris Doherty -- cpdohert at gmail dot com "In our time, it has generally been thought bad and unhealthy to 'repress' inhibitions.
