Brand new - I wiped over Suse 9.2. It's worked fine for a couple of
weeks until 10 days ago. Then I played with the permissions a little
(wish I hadn't!) and installed MythTV. I then removed Myth TV (not sure
how it works yet - it's a bit out of my league technically) but still
have a /home/mythtv folder that I can't delete.

Done all this and it gets rid of the startup message OK. It did reappear
but I repeated these commands and the message has gone again.
Still can't get online at all. Router works fine and I only have one
ethernet card. Any suggestions anyone?
BTW my permissions at the moment show 'Folder Access' Owner - Create &
Delete, Group - Access, Others - Create & Delete. File Access
options are all blank.
