Hi. I would first like to ask if there is a FAQ for this mailing list so
that I don't accidently do something out of line.

Also, when reporting a bug, what information is routinely needed for my
question to be answered. Thank you, and I hope this message isn't too out
of line.

I recently upgraded from 2.1.10 to 2.1.11. Compilation went fine and the
kernel loaded ok. But as soon as I started a shell, my user lost
permissions to some group settings I had set up. Upon checking that the
group file was secure and the perms on the files I was trying to run were
chmodded correctly I concluded that it was the fault of the new kernel.
So, I just overwrote the kernel with the backup of 2.1.10 that I had. The
permissions on the files weren't changed, only the actual kernel.
Everything works fine. Any explanations/fixes?
