 |
|
I think I might've chmodded /tmp wrongly, because now gnome (2.12, on amd64) only starts as root. it quits as a normal user, because of ill set permissions on some file in /tmp, I know for sure, because at first it didn't start at all, then when I removed /tmp and restarted gnome, I could only use it as root. any help would be most welcome.
