Two problems

[George H Griffin]

Hello:

I asked about these two questions on the newbie list earlier & didn't 
get any replies
so I'll try here.  I running YD 3.0.1 on a 600 mhz iBook with 128 meg of 
RAM.

First, I cannot change the firewall settings.  I go into the security 
menu, make changes
(either customizing the rules, or trying to stop it completely for 
testing purposes)
but the changes aren't saved.  I go back into the menu and it's set at 
"high" again. 
I've even logged in as root instead of SU-ing via the security menu but 
nothing is saved.
It's frustrating because I think the firewall is interfering with ntp 
working.

Second, whenever I try to use Konquerer in superuser mode the browser 
opens momentarily
and then closes.  I tried starting it from a consol window and get the 
following messages:

mcop warning: user defined signal handler found for SIG_PIPE,
overriding /tmp/mcop-ggriffin is not owned by user
[root@blackie]# Mutex destroy failure:  Device or resource busy

I don't get the concol prompt back until I control-c.  I have changed 
the /tmp/mcop-ggriffin
directory from the group ggriffin to users to match the way it is in my 
SuSE/x86 installation
where everything is working fine but this hasn't helped.  Any 
suggestions will be welcome
as it's a pain not to be able to browse files with root priviledges so I 
can make changes
when needed.

Thanks, George
