I'm still using FC6, myself, ond on FC6 at least all the device aliases are simply symlinks, and the real device (in my case /dev/hdc) is owned by the desktop user. So if F7 works the same way, I'd expect that /dev/sg* would be owned by the desktop user, but perhaps F7's Fast User Switching does it differently? -- ____________________________________________________________________ TonyN.:' <mailto:tonynelson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> ' <http://www.georgeanelson.com/>
