Hi; I am running a fully updated F11/KDE x64 box. It seems to me that I used to be able to surf my filesysten as a user. Find a file owned by 'root' and edit it. Then either at the start or end of the edit (save), I would be asked for roots password. Now I can edit a file owned by root, but cannot save it. No prompt for password is given. e.g. using dolphin defaults to 'gedit' then 'save' : Could not save the file /etc/pulse/daemon.conf. You do not have the permissions necessary to save the file. Please check that you typed the location correctly and try again. Is this configuable/fixable: I can of course sudo but not in a gui. Mick M. Standard guarantee applies - 30 feet or 30 seconds, whichever comes first. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
