system that had been WS 3, and now on every reboot it changes the permissions
on the serial device ttyS0</FONT> and the user can't access their serial 3-D
pointer device. Anyone have a quick answer? All I got googling was
confirmation that this can happen, but not where that process is
done...<BR><BR><PRE class=moz-signature cols="72">--
