Hi, today I noticed that my xosview doesn't start anymore. I remember that an update was made the last days so I started xosview from console and saw. j0inty@arko ~ $ xosview SerialMeter::SerialMeter() : xosview must be suid root to use the serial meter. SerialMeter::SerialMeter() : xosview must be suid root to use the serial meter. After a "chmod +s /usr/bin/xosview" the tool works again. I have posted my ~/.Xdefaults file on http://paste.pocoo.org/show/546729/ for a testing configuration. regards j0inty Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge -1 =xosview-1.9.2 2. start xosview as normal user 3. Actual Results: SerialMeter::SerialMeter() : xosview must be suid root to use the serial meter. Expected Results: Xosview startup and running ;)
Sry forgot the emerge --info xosview stuff. So here it is http://paste.pocoo.org/show/546735/ j0inty
