No, do you remember which files it was complaining about? This should
not happen unless you unpack Sage as root and then run it as a non-
root user user. This would explain the need to run Sage with sudo once
and then it worked without it.

You can invoke the notebook via ./sage -notebook, but if you post
start_notebook.sage or tell us what you want to do I am sure this can
be sorted out.
