Re: permissions problems after installing the live-cd

Hi,

After installing the live-cd in vbox, I couldn't log in and got this message:

ERROR I can't write to /tmp/orbit-rooz, ORB init failed, aborting


With some help of the IRC channel I could solve this by:

'chmod 1777 /tmp'


But the question is, what causes this problem and what is a long-term solution?


This is a part of the log file with also a strange gdm message:

Setting up sudo (1.6.9p17-1) ...
No /etc/sudoers found... creating one for you.

Is this a bug in live-helper?
