I only would do it after everything else have failed. Your 'echo' command works on my box without any issue and as a regular user. I'm running F11 on a i686 machine: 2.6.27.30-170.2.82.fc10.i686.

I tweaked a few things (like font size, firefox/thunderbird themes) to make the display a little friendlier on the small screen.
