I logged out and then logged in with the test user. It did the same thing. I can say, I have never even tried to use gtkam as that user. I told it to save some pics to /home/dale2/Desktop and it saved them to /home/dale2/ again. It still ignores my settings. I tried something else too. I have a separate partition for my backups. I changed the permissions for it and tried to save some pics to that, it still tries to save to /home/dale/ and even complains that they already exist, since they are their from the last time. So, saving to /backup doesn't work either. It still wants to save to /home/dale no matter what I do. So, since it does this as two different users, is this a program error? I'm going to google some more but not real sure what to look for. I'm also going to check the group file to see if something has been added there that I need to be a member of. I'm going to try a older version of gtkam too. Any more ideas? Thanks. Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ... Not for what you understood or how you interpreted my words!
