chris z Posted July 20, 2003 Report Share Posted July 20, 2003 yeah, i'm full of questions this morning (or full of something, others might say :lol: ) right now i am using supermount for my cdrom, burner, & floppy drives. if i right click on any of the desktop icons for them, there's an option to unmount them. but.....when i try to do that, it tells me that only root has that priveledge. is there away for me as user "chris" to mount & unmount these drives using the right click method, or can it only be done via command line? (or, does supermount not allow mounting & unmounting of drives at all?) does it have anything to do with permissions, & (if so) how can i give "chris" permissions to do this? i tried using "Kuser" to give "chris" mounting permissions by creating groups for "mount" & "unmount" (exact wording), then adding "chris" to those groups, but that doesn't seem to work. TIA (as always), Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Germ Posted July 20, 2003 Report Share Posted July 20, 2003 With supermount, you really don't mount/umount. You basically use the floppy/cdroms like in winders. Notice the bold? it's umount instead of unmount. /germ :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
