Does anybody have an idea on what may be the problem here? I am running fedora core 6 and cannot figure out why this is not working. Everything works fine as the root user. As a normal user I can create a folder with limewire but the wizard gives me an error it cannot save to this folder. The user and group are both set to my normal user and I have set the permissions to 777 and it still doesnt work.
