I just detected another nice side-effect of this uid mixing: When I closed a normal dolphin window (i.e. running under my uid), I got the error (translated): could not save bookmarks in /home/jo/.kde/share/apps/d3lphin/bookmarks.xml ... Permission denied.
ls -l to the file shows: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1156 2007-10-16 18:00 bookmarks.xml Obviously an earlier 'kdesudo dolphin' session had stored bookmarks under my /home/jo/... dir with uid=root, blocking me out. -- kdesu leads to no permission for X https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/144722 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
