after looking into this a bit, I found that this version uses /var/run/screens which looks like this: drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 1024 Jan 14 20:32 screens I tried changing the permissions to drwxrwxrwx, but running screen after that change resulted in this error: Directory '/var/run/screens' must have mode 755. I also emailed this information to the package maintainer, but he hasn't answered yet.. I might just end up downgrading to the bo version which worked perfectly.. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
