Why is your prompt different? # first, then >. Could it be that your
system thought you were root in the second case? Just a stupid
thought...

Most things seem fine here with rc1, but I do see a permissions issue with my
USB scanner.

In 2.6.17

david@davidux:/dev/bus/usb/001 # l
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 100 2006-07-06 20:19 ./
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 80 2006-07-06 20:19 ../
crw-r--r-- 1 root root 189, 0 2006-07-06 20:19 001
crw-r--r-- 1 david root 189, 1 2006-07-06 20:19 002
crw-r--r-- 1 root root 189, 4 2006-07-06 20:19 005

but with 2.6.18

david@davidux:/dev/bus/usb/001> l
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 100 2006-07-06 20:24 ./
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 80 2006-07-06 20:24 ../
crw-r--r-- 1 root root 189, 0 2006-07-06 20:24 001
crw-r--r-- 1 root root 189, 1 2006-07-06 20:24 002
crw-r--r-- 1 root root 189, 4 2006-07-06 20:24 005

Does something need tweaking with udev scripts maybe? This is a SuSE 10.1 system.

Cheers
David
