'ello, I remember a few months ago on this list there was some discussion about the dialogue box that pops up when a user logs into GNOME. It says ``Error: Wrong permissions for /dev/pmu device.'' Michael Schmitz said that we should let him know if the problem persists, as he may be interested in submitting a kernel patch to negate this issue.
I am now using the GNOME 2.8 in Sarge and still get the box. To be honest, I have grown so used to it now that it doesn't annoy me so much any more but I thought I'd post to let people know that on a PowerBook5,4 the problem still exists. As an aside, I've found the new HAL/D-BUS/udev developments in Sarge to be amazing. It seems to me that UNIX desktops are now easier to use than Windows and approaching OSX in terms of features that ``just work'' and don't spew out endless pop-ups when you plug stuff in :-). bye just now, -- Matthew T.
