I'm gonna have to play with it...but I've got access to the files I wanted access to.

I can edit a text doc by typig su - (then scite)
I can access/edit/move/delete files by typing su (then xffm)

but as soon as I open a file in xffm then I lose privliges for the newly opened file.

What you are saying makes sense to me,but when I type in nano /mnt/fatx/e/evox.ini it does nothing? I found an easier way for me to edit a text document,in XFCE...but I still cant grab ahold of my root privledges to save it. I can open it easily inside of XFCE through konquerer,but after all Ive tri...
